A Deadly Education (The Scholomance, #1) by Naomi Novik

There are no teachers, no holidays, friendships are purely strategic, and the odds of survival are never equal. Once you’re inside, there are only two ways out: you graduate or you die.

El Higgins is uniquely prepared for the school’s many dangers. She may be without allies, but she possesses a dark power strong enough to level mountains and wipe out untold millions – never mind easily destroy the countless monsters that prowl the school.

Magic’s Pawn (The Last Herald-Mage, #1) by Mercedes Lackey

The Novice (Summoner, #1) by Taran Matharu
