Wire Wings by Wren Handman

4.0

Thank you to The Parliament House Press and Wren Handman for the ARC!

Wire Wings is the story of Graciela Neumann, a young girl who’s best friend has just passed away. She is learning to adjust her life without her best friend by her side and find herself again; who is her true self?

It’s a very compelling story of grief, I found myself relating to Graciela in her ups and downs as she works her way through high school, friends and family. She struggles to find her voice, to speak up and voice her thoughts, but she manages as she has a fantastical virtual reality world to escape to, the Waves.

The ideas of VR and AI really define this story and make it so enjoyable to read. The idea of having the internet made into a more tangible place is amazing. The idea of creating a being that is so intelligent they become their own person is crazy wonderful to imagine. Sprinkle in some romance, endearing supporting characters, and mythology and just might be a book for you!
