In the House of Transcendence by Amanda Ross

4.0

First, I want to thank the author for this ARC. This story follows Zora as she’s left her home due to an unforgivable act of her father. She winds up in Savannah where she meets Birdie, and later on Whitley, the new love of her life. While there, she embarks on this journey to solve a murder mystery and becomes a burlesque dancer at Birdie’s club.

I wasn’t surprised that MK had something to do with the murder. I mean she was a raging b!tch from the beginning. Jabari came on too strong and arrogant, but he was the last person I suspected when he should’ve been the first.

Zora really came into her own and made some life long friends. I loved that for her. I also love the queer representation as I am a queer reader and author.

I wanted to see more magic being used. I wanted to be completely absorbed into the book.
