Summary
Seven days after Celeste’s grandmother dies, the otherwise perfect Stephanie Hsiao disappears.
The police have their theories. The school has its rumors. But Celeste has a password—guessed correctly—and access to Stephanie’s secret blog.
When Stephanie returns, seemingly unharmed, Celeste is the only one who notices something is wrong. The girl who came back is not quite the same as the girl who left.
Following the blog’s clues, Celeste ventures to find the real Stephanie. Deep in the woods, Stephanie exists in a different body. Stephanie has struck a deal with Mazu, a Chinese sea goddess, to alter the cycle of reincarnation. And Celeste now has an opportunity to make the same bargain.
Written in acclaimed author K-Ming Chang’s gorgeous verse, Girl Gods asks what it means to become divine, and what must be sacrificed to get there.
Critic Reviews
Praise for Girl Gods by K-Ming Chang:
★ “A haunting novel in verse.” —School Library Journal, starred review
“Exquisite, haunting, and jewel-bright in its lyric, in its ferocious looking. Girl Gods is a wonder, a wound, an act of magic.”
—Safia Elhillo, author of Bright Red Fruit and Girls that Never Die
"Incandescent. Sapphic Animorphs as seen through a shattered mirror, the shards sharp enough to cut. The language leaps off the page, every line twisting into thrilling new shapes. The story is both fantastical and deeply relatable. At times it felt like it was speaking directly to my teenage self: I can widen your wounds into windows, and I can offer my hand as you climb through."
—Mar Romasco-Moore, author of Deadstream
