A powerful read! With vibes of Black Panther and Hunger Games and a compelling message of restoration and equity, Wings of Ebony is a rush from start to finish. While some elements weren’t my favorite, I’m really glad I read it and will likely finish the duology.

I finally read this! And, I gotta say:

I KNEW SOMETHING WAS UP WITH GHIZON!

Rue would do anything for her family and that's one of her best qualities. <3 I can't wait to see what happens in the sequel!
