_principal_spice_ 's review for:

Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi

5.0

---

What a stunning YA debut to the start of a spectacular series! This fully earned 5 stars for YA, in my opinion, as an ELA teacher. The whole world, culture, and spirit that lived and breathed through the entire text was life-giving in spite of the horrific deaths of so many. And might I say, I have a touch of bias to say that the death of Inan really sealed the deal for me because good riddance to his weak, self-centered, and pathetic character and thank the gods for his sister and Tzain for carrying through when Zéile needed unwavering support!!! This movie needs to be out stat!!! Well done, Adeyemi!
