Amari and the Night Brothers is just as magical as Amari Peters herself. A supernatural mystery involving a missing brother, an evil magician, and summer camp tryouts. And at the centre of it all, Amari Peters, a young Black girl from a rough neighbourhood that's about to shake the world. A fantastic middle-grade fantasy with explosive action and amazing worldbuilding that leaves me hungry for a sequel.

THIS BOOK WAS SO GOOD! I adored all of the characters and would have wanted to go on these adventures with them when I was their age. Or can I just be an adult agent please!? That would be great. Anyways. This book. The writing was wonderful. The characters were absolutely fantastic and I feel fiercely protective of Amari and Elsie! The twists, the reveals, THE ENDING. I just loved it all and cannot form cohesive and critical points. Sorry. Just going to yell at everyone to read some more wholesome adventure middle grade.
