Bethany has done it again. A CHORUS RISES is a wonderful story filled with self-discovery and empowerment. Trials and tribulations of the young. I have been a fan of Bethany's since A SONG BELOW WATER, and her next novel doesn't disappoint. The plot. Characters. Stakes. There is so much to unpack in this AMAZING story. I HIGHLY recommend A CHORUS RISES. Don't miss out!

Ny, a major influencer in the Portland magic network, suffered a traumatic event at the hands of another, and is then vilified for it. She must face the loss of her followers, her friends, and herself. As she struggles to find a way to heal she must make a number of tough decisions along the way - does she get vengeance, or does she get justice?

This magical story is a little confusing in the beginning. There is a lot of backstory that must be shared in order to understand the situation our protagonist finds herself in. That said, it comes together beautifully, and is a lovely, haunting read. Major questions are faced by Ny, including who she really is. This is a story of black girl magic, discovering yourself, and learning that sometimes it isn't about you were, but who you are now.

This is a story that sticks with you long after you are done.
