It’s never easy being the new kid: new home, new school, new enemies. Shakti feels like she’s on this never ending circle of being new. Now living in Amherst MA with her two moms, Shakti meets Xi and things seem to turn around..until she is “introduced” to HEK, the three bullies who seem to have a strange hold on the teachers and students. They discover that the HEK are casting spells in the woods and Shakti chooses to seek the assistance of Durga Ma to break the spell HEK has over everyone. Of course, things go wrong. She conjures Kali Ma, the “evil” twin of Durga Ma and chaos ensues. Will Shakti be able to let go of her hate?
This was a beautifully drawn graphic novel. I loved learning about the Indian culture and watching how Shakti finds herself and learns that it’s ok to be just who she is and to let go of hate. Strong feminist representation throughout the GN. The MS girls will flock to this story!
