Request #575 From E

the book i’m looking for was a steampunk manga, about a girl who takes a bus/(transport?) to her new boarding school, but takes the wrong turn. she ends up at a school full of odd creatures, not human, including a bunch of faculty that are basically robots/cyborgs. a mix of cyberpunk technology parts & pieces of various prople. the book spans her defeating these faculty who want to destroy her (i think they want her body parts because she’s youthful and it will extend their life? and they were trying to extend their life as long as possible)

I’m wondering if you could help me find a book I used to be obsessed with in middle school, I don’t know when it was wrote but it was a smaller book, hardcover and I wanna say it was orange. It was about a girl whose father & sister had left or died (I think died) & she was writing to them and then started taking a photography class & using her dads old camera. There’s also mention of a beach in it. I know it’s a long shot but it’s the only book that hooked me
