A Chorus Rises by Bethany C. Morrow

4.0

I was unsure about this sequel because it's from the pov of the antagonist from the first book. I do think the first book is better but I really liked this one too. She really annoyed me at the beginning but I loved seeing her character growth and her acceptance that while what happened to her was inexcusable, she also did some bad things and was able to own up to that. I think this one focuses a lot more on intersectionality because althouch she is a black girl she is also a type of magical creature that has a lot of privilege in this universe and she has to come to terms with what that means for herself and for other black girls. I think parts of the ending were a little unrealistic but not so much so that they ruined the story.
