If I had to do an elevator pitch for this book, I’d say “Think Halloweentown but adult and Black and steeped in New Orleans atmosphere and dialect where three kids have to save the literal embodiments of songs that are also the lifeblood of NOLA!” This debut adult fantasy has tons of intrigue and keeps you turning the page; I’d totally watch a TV show set in this world. The world of is infused throughout the story, and I didn’t know a book with 3 kids as main characters in an adult fantasy world could be interesting, but Jennings pulls it off. The last 100 pages did drag a bit and probably could’ve been edited a bit more, but overall, I enjoyed this.
