Neverwraith by Shakir Rashaan
5.0
A debut YA novel, this foray into the fantasy and paranormal was worth the trip! Neverwraith by Shakir Rashaan lives up to the authors reputation for crafting immerse narratives with his other books, and I loved exploring this realm.
Meet Yasir, or Ya-Ya. He has things going on that he can’t talk to anyone about. He lost both his parents at an early age, knows nothing about his heritage, or where he comes from. He is struggling but has endured this pain for a long time. He’s now the new kid in school. He’s trying to keep to himself but still meets others, including a girl named Zahra. They have an instant connection, somehow… will he be able to explore it or will his trauma prevent him from creating a close relationship with a great person?
I cannot wait to read the next book in the series! Rashaan did an excellent job at building the story and I couldn’t put it down. I was hooked from the first chapter and devoured this story. Vivd imagery allowed me to use my imagination to its fullest, and I throughly enjoyed this fast-paced read. I feel like this is going to be a popular read and transcend boundaries. I highly suggest this read!
