As others have stated below, Nevermoor is like Harry Potter, and my colleagues tell me that many students would like this book because of the similarity.
We thought Poet X was probably suitable for older readers, and that there were some unexplored side stories that could've been further developed or taken out. However, it is nice to have a greater selection of novels written in poetic style for students who do not like reading "long books". I also saw some similarities between this title and Piecing Me Together, which was another title I really liked this year.
At a vote of 2-1, DDM is voting Nevermoor through to the final round.
