All of Us with Wings | Michelle Ruiz Keil
8 posts | 10 read | 17 to read
Michelle Ruiz Keils YA fantasy debut about love, found family, and healing is an ode to post-punk San Francisco through the eyes of a Mexican-American girl. Seventeen-year-old Xochi is alone in San Francisco, running from her painful past: the mother who abandoned her, the man who betrayed her. Then one day, she meets Pallas, a precocious twelve-year-old who lives with her rockstar family in one of the citys storybook Victorians. Xochi accepts a position as Pallass live-in governess and quickly finds her place in their household, which is relaxed and happy despite the band's larger-than-life fame. But on the night of the Vernal Equinox, as a concert afterparty rages in the house below, Xochi and Pallas accidentally summon a pair of ancient creatures devoted to avenging the wrongs of Xochis adolescence. She would do anything to preserve her new life, but with the creatures determined to exact vengeance on those whove hurt her, no one is safenot the family shes chosen, nor the one she left behind.

My first bail of the year. I listened to a couple hours of this audiobook and just can‘t get into it. Based on Litsy reviews I am not missing out on anything. This was also my #bookspin book for this month.

This book did not work for me. There is a major relationship between a teen and the father of the girl she babysits. It‘s approached as if it is fine in a way that made me uncomfortable. The book did address with the age gap, but not in a way that made it clear it was wrong.

"For all of us that grew up too fast with only ourselves to rely on: I want you to know that everything you did, you did to survive.
And you made it. You are here, reading these words.
You are strong. You are beautiful.
I can't see you, but I know you're there."

DrexEdit That's a really beautiful quote. 5y
