A review by frog_appreciator
Wings of Ebony by J. Elle

3.5

I picked this book up from the library because of its gorgeooous cover. I got instantly pulled into the story and was invested. The main issues for me were the magic system not being fully fleshed out, in regards to the plot twist at the end maybe contradicting somethings? And the romance alluding to a love triangle wasn’t it for me. However the meat of it dealt with the real world/the real world’s issues represented in the magical world, and it was emotional and impactful. I’m not a huge fan of the chosen one trope but it deserves to have diverse stories under it.  An emotional tale
of a Black girl torn between two worlds. I picked up the second book from the library at the same time so I’ll be reading it as well.
