  • Good Book for Kids
Great adventure story and I love the look on a Black Girls face when she see's the shero looks like her.

  • Wow!
I bought this book for my 10 year old daughter and I to read together. I ended up reading by myself (you know how that goes LOL) because it looked interesting. I also teach 5th grade so I thought it could be a fun read aloud for our fantasy unit. I literally could not put it down. I read it in ONE day! The character development and the description were phenomenal. The way she was able to teach about our history while weaving this tale was something I hadn't experienced. I will be encouraging my daughter to read this and plan on buying the series for my classroom. Awesome! ... show more

  • Nic Blake and the Remarkables
“Nic Blake and the Remarkables- The Manifestor Prophecy” is a middle grade novel by Angie Thomas. It will be released on April 4, 2023. I received an eARC from NetGalley and HarperCollins Children’s Books. I LOVE discovering a good new series. Fantasy? Even better. Strong, powerful characters? Most definitely. A little mystery? Perfection. Multiple twists you don’t see coming? Indeed. “Nic Blake and the Remarkables- The Manifestor Prophecy” will be huge. Quite simply put…ginormous! I need to reread this book to soak it all in. I cannot wait to see where Angie Thomas takes us next! I highly recommend this book for middle grade readers. Everyone. Preorder. I cannot wait to hold this book in my hands on release day. ... show more

  • A magical girl in an unmagical world sets events in motion that change her life.
What it’s all about: Nic Blake is Remarkable. Not special like most of us are (or think we are), but Remarkable in the sense that she has magic powers. And she happens to be the most powerful type of Remarkable: a Manifester. Her and her dad live in the Unremarkable world, moving from place to place whenever someone sees her dad use his Gift. Now, they are living in Jackson, Nic has a best friend who lives next door, and the two of them have created a wiki for a series of books that is the top search result. On her twelfth birthday, Nic is supposed to be allowed to learn how her Gift works, but her father is making her wait another year. Even worse, she is grounded on her birthday and can’t go see the author of her favorite series. She sneaks out, but little does she know that meeting her idol will turn her life inside out. tl/dr: A magical girl lives in an unmagical world and sets events in motion that change her life, her family, and her future forever. My thoughts: I read this in two days. I have other books I am reading, but I didn’t pick any of them up while I was reading this. At the beginning I had a hard time getting used to the pacing and the writing (because I am not in middle school), but once I got into the rhythm of it, I couldn’t stop. Nic is such a great character! She’s smart, she’s determined, she’s stronger than she knows, but she is also unsure about herself and a bit awkward (what 12 year old isn’t?). Her relationship with JP, her best friend, is wonderful because there is no romantic tension, no crushes, and they are both so supportive of each other. The adventure of the story moves quickly as the trio of Nic, Alex, and JP tackle each task. They aren’t always brave, in fact, they are mostly scared but determined. This book gave a more realistic version of how kids would act in this situation. They don’t have all the answers, and all they can do is follow the clues left for them and ask for help along the way. The contrast between Nic’s world among the Unremarkables and Alex’s life living with Remarkables provides a contrast that points out many of the problems with our society, but also shows that even the Remarkable towns are not without their danger and downfalls. Nowhere is perfect. Favorite Character: Junior. He isn’t what he seems, and he isn’t afraid to be who he is. Favorite Moment: When Nic and JP meet their favorite author and Nic’s father bursts in. Memorable Quotes: “His mom says he’s being a boy. I say he’s being a butt.” “This situation shouldn’t be seen as normal, baby. I don’t care how many times it happens, how often it happens. It should not be normal.” “Goodness, girl, be smart, not brave!” “‘This is dangerous!’ ‘Who cares? We do what we wanna,” says Ralphie. “That right there is true freedom.” “Ugh, here I go, tearing up again. I really hate having feelings.” ... show more

  • What an exciting debut for Nic Blake!
Such a fun introduction to what I hope is a lengthy series! I was supposed to be reading this with my 10yo niece, but once I got started I couldn’t stop. Can’t wait to read what happens next!

  • Another hit for Thomas
Thomas is one of the most gifted authors of her generation and the diversity movement. Her first foray into fantasy did not disappoint. I enjoyed the adventures of Nic and her friends as they try to save her dad. Ready to see where the characters take in their next adventure.

  • Angie Thomas does it again!
She creates a world of magic and power and educates her readers on black history and culture at the same time! Nic Blake is brilliant!

  • A fun, magical middle grade adventure!
A fun, magical middle grade adventure! Overall, Nic Blake and the Remarkables is a fun read that will entertain plenty of readers. However, I didn't quite fall in love with the voice of Nic and the way the history was included in such large chunks. The amount of exposition took me out of the flow of the story a lot of the times. And while I loved that the magic and world had its foundation in African American history, I think the way it was introduced a lot of the times felt too much. The plot and magical world itself, though, was exciting and unique! I loved all of the different Remarkables introduced and the different folklore come to life. It's a rich imagining that I think middle grade readers will enjoy if they can get through some of the more dragging details that slow the pace down. There are plenty of twists and turns along the way, and I love that Thomas isn't afraid to make your feelings towards a character change. Definitely give this one a chance for a magical adventure through the south! ... show more
