Wow! This book exceeds expectations! Five stars!

I was drawn to the amazing cover and as I read I was blown away by the story.

I really liked how the story still felt relatable even with paranormal aspects.

If you like YA and paranormal then this book is for you!

Thank you to Netgalley, Entangled and Shakir Rashaan for allowing me to read an advanced copy in exchange for my honest review.

"Neverwraith" delivers a promising start to a new and fresh YA Paranormal series. I think this book will resonate well with it's intended audience.

The first half of this book lays a solid foundation or what felt like the beginning of an origin story. We meet the MMC Yasir Salah as he moves in with his Uncle and prepares to start a new school. That would be plenty for any teenager to grapple with but Yasir isn't just another teen, something is happening within him that can't be rationally explained.

I won't touch on the plot any further because I don't want spoil any revelations but I really felt the second half of this book is where the pace sped up and set things into motion.

I'd recommend this book to someone who enjoys reading in this genre.

Thank you Shakira Rashaan, Net Galley and Entangled Publishing for providing me with an ARC of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Have you ever read a book and felt homesick for the characters you've just met? Have you ever gone on a journey and been so wasted by the end and yet you hunger for more? Neverwraith is that book.
The prose and plot crackled and hummed on every page. The author's vivid depiction of each character made me laugh, cry, and cheer my way through every chapter. Shakir Rashaan took this reader on a journey that left her speechless by the end of the book. I'm not one to give spoilers. I think it takes away from the writer's effort and cheats readers out of a chance to meet this masterful work.
If you are looking for a new classic that would make even the great Stan Lee smile, check out Neverwraith and the other brilliant works of Shakir Rashaan. You won't regret it.

Neverwraith not only delivers on its promise to be an explosive and innovative paranormal story, but it also touches on themes of self-discovery, resilience, and the realization of one's true potential. The story seamlessly blends elements of Bel-Air's edge, wit and charm with the intrigue of Cloak & Dagger. Rashaan's debut YA novel skillfully combines the paranormal elements of Yasir's shifting powers with the challenges and relatable struggles of being a teenager in an unfamiliar environment. This is a promising start to a thrilling series that will leave readers eagerly anticipating the next installment.

Yasir Salah, the new kid in a suburban Georgia high school, finds himself grappling with a strange and unsettling transformation within his body. Rashaan masterfully captures the raw emotions and intense physical changes Yasir experiences, from encounters with alpha males to unexpected attractions, making the story come alive.

As Yasir navigates the unfamiliar territory of a new town with its own set of rules, he discovers hidden truths about his identity and a frightening responsibility that awaits him. The author's vivid descriptions transport readers into his world, allowing them to feel the heat on Yasir's skin and experience the intensity of his emotions. Rashaan's innovative storytelling and dynamic characters make Neverwraith a captivating read from start to finish. I couldn’t put it down!
