This short read blew me away with it's interesting world.
Feeling like your life suddenly isn't going the path you expected it to go is hard. But when then the whole world sees you differently too, that's even harder. And that struggle is clearly visible in this book. Asher struggles with his huge change of getting angel wings and I felt so much for this young man. His boyfriend suddenly acts differently, his adoptive mother doesn't treat him the same way and the government is on his ass for him to fit this perfect mold of an angel wing. This plot gripped me so hard and had so many interesting hooks it kept me thinking about the story until I finished it.
Asher is a grumpy teenager, and rightly so in my opinion. I loved how he is a teen that doesn't care to be a good boy, but at the same time cares so deeply. He tries so hard to do right by his friends and family, but massively struggles along the way. Picking the right choices in life is hard, especially when the whole world is against you, but I think he managed quite okay and figured out a path for himself, even if it's fulled with mayhem.
The way Asher and Reed interact and have their relationship is very wholesome, even though they both struggle with the sudden change of Asher getting angel wings. The sibling bond with Amy is also so full of love, and seeing these three together made my heart feel full. I also gained a soft spot for the trio's dad who seems to be such a wonderful grounded man, would love to meet him.
Concluding this is a story about deep bonds between family and figuring out a way of life when the world is against you.
I received this eARC and this was my honest review.
