Legendborn by Tracy Deonn
4.0
C/W: Racism, micro-aggressions, grief and character deaths
"Legendborn" was everything I expected it to be, but surprising all the same. A wonderful reinvention of an old legend. I especially liked how "Legendborn" handled the process of grief and grieving. While I do think that a younger person might have appreciated the story more than I did, Bree was a wonderful character to view the world through. I had an incredible time remembering the importance of ancestors, how ancestral history allowed to be preserved and who is allowed to preserve theirs.
If you're an audiobook fan, the North Carolina accents in the audiobook really help set the scene.
