Dear Girls and/or Demons,
I loved this and so glad that I already grab the second and third book, while at the library.
This was an interesting, YA, debut fantasy.
Tween to teen- year old me would have loved this! Rage against the system, coming-of-age story with a diverse and lovely cast. The magic system is simple enough to make up for not being perfectly flushed out. The plot and pacing is perfect.
Are we girls or are we demons? Honestly, I’d pick demon too. And I cheered for Deka and her found family the whole time!
This book will possibly seem boring and predictable for an adult fantasy-lover. For its intended audience, this is an excellent read and has all the parts of a great fantasy.
👏👏👏 Amazing! And By the time you’ve read this I’ve already grabbed the sequel!
