Why read it?
1 author picked Adia Kelbara and the Circle of Shamans as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This Afrofantasy paints a rich, textured world full of fascinating characters, a propulsive plot, and characters I root for.
Honestly, I could recommend this book just because I loved Adia so much—she’s super funny, wry, and sharply observant, which for me is a perfect character trifecta. I really connected to the big topic (and relevant in today’s climate) themes, including an especially poignant moment when Adia is told that being different is part of why she’s a gift to the world and she shouldn’t be ashamed of the things that set her apart from everyone else.
From Heather's list on middle grade with diverse characters and big topics.
