The Canopy Keepers by Veronica G. Henry
adventurous emotional hopeful mysterious reflective slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Canopy Keepers is a slow-burning, emotional fantasy that quietly wraps around you like moss on an ancient tree. It opens with deep loss, but what follows is a story of healing, legacy, and the quiet magic that lives in nature and ancestry. The world-building is rich and thoughtful, and while the pacing takes its time, the payoff is worth it.


The characters feel grounded and real, especially the Black leads who exist beyond stereotypes — complex, powerful, and human. And let’s be honest… Ochai may have had a short appearance, but he left a lasting impression (yes, I am petitioning for a spin-off).


Perfect for readers looking to gently ease back into books, this one made me slow down, reflect, and breathe deep. 4 stars from me — soft, mystical, and beautifully rooted.
