THE SINISTER SWEETNESS OF SPLENDID ACADEMY BOOK REVIEW BY GRACE ISESELE The sinister sweetness of splendid academy is a beautiful book about three witches who open an academy to feast on the children that attend. When eleven year old Loreli finds out the secrets inside the school, it`s up to her to stop the witches and save the children. I loved the book with all my heart, the plot made me more and more curious as I continued reading. The book taught me that nothing is ever as it seems. It showed me that you should always wonder, let your imagination spark and grow till it`s so strong you can`t even stop it. Anyone who wants to read a book about fantasy, witches and bravery should definitely consider reading this book.
