They obviously don’t sound mature throughout the entire book (apart from Megan?) but you get to pick up on it through their conversations. Burdens that most people their age don’t carry. It’s not like your typical YA in which a few teenagers try to sound much older for their age just for the sake of it, these characters sound mature because of the burdens they carry. The plot is definitely one that I’ve never come across before which makes the book even more unique.
This book deals with sacrifices, death, guilt, fear, love, forgiveness. I can’t remember the last time a book got so many emotions out of me. It made me laugh, it made me cringe, it got me excited, it made me cry, it made me think, it made me feel frustrated and at the end of it all, it made me smile. You might want to skip the Goodreads synopsis if you’ve decided to go in blindly!Įver wondered how a single moment can change the life of many? I recommend that you go into this book blindly, trust me. Elegantly written, "On Little Wings" is an evocative debut novel about self discovery, first love, and the power of family.I received this free ebook in exchange for an honest review

Compelled to find answers, Jennifer embarks on a quest that takes her from the wheat fields of Nebraska to the fishing town of Smithport, Maine, home to the one person who can help her solve this family secret the woman in the photo. The woman in the photo looks just like Jennifer, down to the smattering of freckles across her nose. Jennifer is an only child, and so were her parents at least that's what she thinks, until she finds an old photo in the back of one of her mother's books.
