OLDER FICTION
McLemore, Anna-Marie

The Weight of Feathers

(3) YA The Paloma and Corbeau families, who perform in traveling shows as mermaids and fairies, respectively, have hated each other for two decades. Despite their bitterly feuding relatives, Lace Paloma and Cluck Corbeau fall in love after Cluck saves Lace's life. Heavy with magical elements, foreign phrases, and lovely imagery, this is a challenging, poetic, and unhurried read.
