Book Description
Everyone has an X Perhaps you've had an unfaithful lover, an ex-friend, or a horrible boss. In this book, we call that person “X,” because “asinine, egotistical imbecile” would take up too much space. Every page in Draw with a Vengeance includes a drawing prompt or activity so you can doodle, cut out, tear, or otherwise destroy the object of your aversion. The message here is simple: Don't do bad things to bad people. Draw bad things—and let karma handle the rest.

An Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller A GOOD MORNING AMERICA Book Club Pick "Adeyemi has sparked magic once again." —The New York Times After battling the impossible, Zélie and Amari have finally succeeded in bringing magic back to the land of Orïsha. But the ritual was more powerful than they could’ve imagined, reigniting the powers of not only the maji, but of nobles with magic ancestry, too. Now, Zélie struggles to unite the maji in an Orïsha where the enemy is just as powerful as they are. But when the monarchy and military unite to keep control of Orïsha, Zélie must fight to secure Amari's right to the throne and protect the new maji from the monarchy's wrath. With civil war looming on the horizon, Zélie finds herself at a breaking point: she must discover a way to bring the kingdom together or watch as Orïsha tears itself apart.
