Nic Blake and the Remarkables: The Manifestor Prophecy
by Angie Thomas
Thank you to NetGalley and HarperCollins Children’s Books for an advanced digital copy.
There were times when this book dragged on a little and I was ready for the next part of the story. But dang, this is some impactful writing. I truly think kids will find comfort in this story while also discover tough questions to discuss about the world. Even as an adult, I found myself researching some of the historical figures and events mentioned to learn more. This is a wonderful stepping stone for children and adults to discover black history that they might not have known before.
The fantasy elements were fascinating and wonderful. I loved being immersed in this world and am eager for more. Even though this is a middle grade book, I would have loved more depth and development of the characters. A lot of them felt a little flat, which is unlike an Angie Thomas novel.
Overall, I enjoyed the heck out of this book and can’t wait for the next one.
