The LGBTQ+ YA story you’ve been waiting for: friendship, identity, attraction, disasters … and finding your wings.

Angels

Angels have lived among us for as long as we can remember. They don’t have powers, but they do have wings. They’ve always hidden their wings, and who they are – until Kane.

Melodie Abbott remembers the day she saw Kane’s taboo-shattering billboard. A beautiful model showing his wings on Oxford Street, on a photo as tall as a building.

When sixteen-year-old Mel finally meets her idol, disaster strikes. Can she find a way to free herself from his shadow, and what will her future hold?

‘Angels’ is a coming-of-age story, a university heartbreak novel with a twist, a celebration of friendship and desire, and an exploration of attraction, identity and self-expression.

It takes courage to find your wings…

I got so wrapped up in the story that I forgot I was reading a book.

Arc review

So many layers to this story – racism, elitism – and lots of other isms. Intolerance, bigotry, violent reaction to anything not understood, to anything “not us” which is sadly so true.

ARC review

Needs to be a modern classic. Something to be taken seriously as well as enjoyed, because there are powerful messages about the society we live in reflected within the story.
