Plus, she’s described as brown-skinned and we’re always on board for more POC rep. As she designs and performs her routines, she showcases her creativity and charisma, and we also see how kind and passionate she is as she befriends people from all walks of life. She’s a confident, self-assured fire-cracker, which is what makes her such a stellar performer. Make no mistake though, this story revolves around Kallia, one of my favorite protagonists ever. The chapters alternate between three points of view: mostly Kallia’s, some of Demarco’s, and a little of Jack’s.
Angeles’s writing style is perfect-she drops so many little clues about what’s to come, building suspense and mystery with every chapter, and yet still the plot is completely unpredictable. The world Angeles creates is unique and gripping, with a tangible atmosphere of mystique and danger. A magic competition! Costumes and balls and excitement and circuses with lions and fire-eaters-what more could I want?! I actually consciously started reading slower or stopping after a few chapters just to make it last longer. I LOVE this book-it sucked me right in from the very first page and didn’t let me go until I finished.
