A
Joyfully Jay review.
4 stars
A Crack in the Heart is a contemporary, young adult-ish type story that draws clear lines to religion. As I read the story, the references to guardian angels and the “Light” versus the “Dark” made me think of generic, non-denominational Christian themes. Given my American cultural background, I thought it was great fun to see how much freedom I thought Eskander had to pursue any type of relationship with Aiden and especially how a romantic relationship between Aiden and Eskander seemed to act as a way to regenerate the angel’s power.
I think my favorite part of the story is how Singer builds a delightfully convincing unreliable narrator aspect into the story telling. At the heart of the situation is what really happens during the sacrificial ritual that Aiden experiences…if he even experiences it. I think the power of this scene lies in how convincingly it unfolds in first one, then another direction.
