Description

“Although there is plenty of history embedded in the novel, A Wish After Midnight is written with a lyrical grace that many authors of what passes for adult literature would envy.” —Paula L. Woods, The Defenders Online “Zetta Elliott’s time travel novel A Wish After Midnight is a bit of a revelation…It’s vivid, violent, and impressive history.” —Colleen Mondor, Bookslut Genna is a fifteen-year-old girl who wants out of her tough Brooklyn neighborhood. But she gets more than she bargained for when a wish gone awry transports her back in time. Facing the perilous realities of Civil War–era Brooklyn, Genna must use all her wits to survive.
