This week's Amalgam Team recommendation comes from Marisel. Why read #Excellence? "Because not only are the art and storyline amazing, but the universe it takes place in is made up of two of my favorite topics: #Wakanda and the #wizardingworldofharrypotter !" Purchase: amalgamphily.com/shop... Synopsis: "Spencer Dales was born into a world of magic. His father belongs to the Aegis, a secret society of black magicians ordered by their unseen masters to better the lives of others-of higher potential-but never themselves. Now it's time for Spencer to follow in his father's footsteps, but all he sees is a broken system in need of someone with the wand and the will to change it. But in this fight for a better future...who will stand beside him?" @imagecomics

Team recommendation alert! Makiya suggests #Heartstopper for your weekend read. About... Charlie, a highly-strung, openly gay over-thinker, and Nick, a cheerful, soft-hearted rugby player, meet at a British all-boys grammar school. Friendship blooms quickly, but could there be something more...?... Charlie Spring is in Year 10 at Truham Grammar School for Boys. The past year hasn’t been too great, but at least he’s not being bullied anymore. Nick Nelson is in Year 11 and on the school rugby team. He’s heard a little about Charlie - the kid who was outed last year and bullied for a few months - but he’s never had the opportunity to talk to him. They quickly become friends, and soon Charlie is falling hard for Nick, even though he doesn’t think he has a chance. But love works in surprising ways, and sometimes good things are waiting just around the corner... Purchase: http://ow.ly/Mg7W30rg22M Have you read it?
