Sibylline

**A Good Morning America YA Book Club Pick**

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Three teens infiltrate the magical ivy league in the first book of a heart-stopping dark academia romantasy series from #1 New York Times bestselling author Melissa de la Cruz.

The special first edition of the hardcover features stunning stenciled edges and designed endpapers!

Raven, Atticus, and Dorian have dreamed of attending Sibylline for as long as they can remember. But when the magical university rejects them, the friends’ plans for a future studying the arcane together begin crashing down.

Until they decide to steal an education.

Getting jobs on campus, they sneak into lectures and swipe forbidden texts, dodging the administration’s watchful eye. In the quiet of night, in the thrill of secrecy, their magic awakens. And so do long-buried attractions that turn their friendship into something more.

But like magic, love can create, and it can destroy. As unrequited feelings and resentment threaten to fracture their bond, the trio discovers an insidious magic that has sunk its claws into Sibylline, killing students and corroding the very bones of the university. Now the three intruders may be the key to saving the institution from wreckage . . . if they don’t wreck one another first.
