How You Grow Wings by Rimma Onoseta Book Review

” How You Grow Wings” is a good book that you can read online or download to read it later. Before starting the reading or downloading, here is the summary of the book that you can read. Sisters Cheta and Zam couldn’t be more different. Cheta, sharp-tongued and stubborn, never shies away from conflict—either at school or at home, where her mother fires abuse at her. Timid Zam escapes most of her mother’s anger, skating under the radar and avoiding her sister whenever possible. In a turn of good fortune, Zam is invited to live with her aunt’s family in the lap of luxury. Jealous, Cheta also leaves home, but to a harder existence that will drive her to terrible decisions. When the sisters are reunited, Zam alone will recognize just how far Cheta has fallen—and Cheta’s fate will rest in Zam’s hands. Debut author Rimma Onoseta deftly explores classism, colorism, cycles of abuse, how loyalty doesn’t always come attached to love, and the messy truths that sometimes, family is not a source of comfort, and that morality is all shades of grey.

Brief Summary How You Grow Wings by Rimma Onoseta

On another note, I was surprised to discover (as I’m sure Zam was) that though luxurious in comparison to her home, life for Zam in her uncle’s house isn’t care-free. It’s definitely an upgrade but still a very different way of life, and her tumultuous relationship with her cousin didn’t help. However, it’s hard to feel bad for her when you consider Cheta. I can tell that Onoseta meant for it to be difficult to choose a side, but I couldn’t help seeing Cheta as the underdog in this story. That’s not to say that I agree with her choices or the way she handled certain situations (I don’t) but I do at least understand her drive if nothing else. Without spoiling it, I think if you’re expecting this book to end with Cheta and Zam hugging it out and everything being suddenly okay via unspoken apologies and an erasure of the past, you’re going to be disappointed. While I would love to see how these girls’ lives unfold into adulthood, I can recognize and appreciate that this story has been concluded.
