The Weight of Feathers by Anna-Marie McLemore

4.0

I just love this author so much. Everything that she writes is a work of art and, for a debut, this was just fantastic. It reminded me of a mix between romeo and juliet and the night circus and if that is not enough to convince to read it then here's what you can expect...

It's a story of pain, of age old feuds that have seeped poison through generations. It's the quiet, just you and the world and the stars above. It's feathers falling on skin, feathers in pockets, feathers growing from your back. There's mermaids, a sequins twinkling in the moonlight and swimming until your lungs gasp for air. There's tears and angry and a fury so strong that the sky might crack.
