Shadowshaper is set in NYC, but a lot of the issues with gentrification are also very prevalent in Cincy.

@MorganSchenkel Lol I'm definitely getting Percy Jackson vibes from it too

Reading Shadowshaper makes me appreciate all the cool murals in Cincinnati. It would be cool to look into the artists behind some of them and their backgrounds, since there's a lot celebrating diversity. #engl20512

I like how the culture and real world issues are blended with fantasy in Shadowshaper so far. I love seeing concepts of folklore and magic from an author's own culture implemented into fantasy. #engl20512

@MadelynMeder @BrookeJoyTV I think this book shows how violence begets pain, which begets more violence, and how it takes strength to end that cycle.

[LilyEng205 @Eng205Lily]

@MadelynMeder @paytonchandle11 Agreed. I want to read the original book too, to see how the same emotion is conveyed only through text.

I want to think that Will's experience in the elevator convinced him to not go through with his plan, but I love how ambiguous it is.

@Cierra51570013 @iannucck Do we really know that's who killed him? Will thinks so but there's no hard proof.

[LilyEng205 @Eng205Lily]

@MorganSchenkel Agreed, the little details like getting his mom's eczema soap really make it feel alive.

I love the setting of an elevator, it creates a lot of tension. Reminds me of the infamous elevator scene from Neon Genesis Evangelion, which is two minutes of characters standing in silence in an elevator (linked for your viewing pleasure).
