Isle of Wings by E.A. Burnett
4 Stars

The Isle of wings is a YA fantasy novel filled with mystery, magic and intrigue. The islands’ Rain Mage died and the island has been in a drought for the past year. Ever since the death of her family, Roana’s life has been difficult. Alone, with no friends, to take care of her grandmother. All she dreams about is escaping the island and restarting her life elsewhere. Scraping some money together, she attempts to smuggle her way off the island on a boat. Unfortunately she gets caught causing drastic changes in her life. For better or worse, depends on your view. Not everything is as it seems on the island.

I think the story and the characters were well developed. The world building was detailed enough that I could picture what the island looked like. I enjoyed how the relationship between Roana and Iniko progressed. My only issue with this book was that I found it hard to get into. It was slow to start. I’m glad that I stuck with it though. Once it picked up, I didn’t want to put it down.
