"A Song Below Water is a refreshing new take on the “Supernatural Beings Walk Among Us” trope. Tavia is a siren, forced to hide her ability to compel others with her voice. Effie is trying to start over, leaving the traumas of her past behind. Their friendship sustains them as they try to seem like normal high school juniors and protect each other from the forces that seek to dismantle their literal Black Girl Magic. In this magic-infused version of America, having a voice is literally a superpower – a powerful message for the times we’re living in."
