Adorned by Chi, Vol. 1 by Jacque Aye, Tiana Mone'e, Magus Ato

5.0

Adorned by Chi was such a fun read. I adored it - the upbeat tone, the gorgeous transformation sequences, the range of personalities in the group, and the Mwanwu designs. The art on the Mwanwu is exceptional, detailed, and otherworldly. I liked all the characters in the group, although I think Kelechi and Gogo are going to be my favorites. Usually the perpetually upbeat member of an ensemble cast rubs me a way, but Gogo is a good mix of energy, intuition, and humor. Adaeze is a compelling protagonist. I can't wait to see how she interacts with Kaira and Emeka and if the secret of the Mwanwu will be revealed. My only major complaint is that this volume is too short, and I need to know what happens next!
