The Whispering Dark review

4/5 stars Recommended if you like: fantasy, dark academia, magic, contemporary fantasy I'm having difficulty articulating my thoughts on this book. It was a good book, it wasn't bad, but it did feel as though something was...missing. I liked the parts where Lane is working to figure out what's going on, but there isn't a lot explained in the way of magic and I feel like only Colton and Lane get any character development. To start, this book is set in a world that's basically our own but there's some magic in it. The different types/specialties of magic are never fully explained, nor is it explained how widespread magic is and how many people know of it. It kind of sounds like a fairly niche thing and that the university (and possibly magic itself?) was only a recent thing. On the other hand, two of Lane's friends seem quite familiar with magic and how it works, so maybe not. In terms of magic, it seems as though people with magical affinities have two powers: one specific to them and one that's general and allows them to walk through worlds, though only through pre-created portals. I really liked how the portions of the book looking at the world-walking magic focused on the minute differences between the worlds. I wish more of the book had focused on this aspect, I found it interesting and liked the way the professor talked about the different worlds. Lane herself is in an interesting predicament and I think there's a lot bundled into her that sort of and could happen. This is really her first time away from home and she's thrown into this environment where magic exists but she didn't know it until that moment. Her exploration of magic and being a Deaf student at a university that doesn't really accommodate her is and could be really interesting. We get to see a lot of how Lane handles herself, and largely it's by keeping her head down. She struggles in her classes and struggles to feel as though she's capable of anything, and over the course of the book she slowly begins to understand her abilities and how to make things work. That being said, I did wish we saw more of Lane working on her magic and developing as a character. As it stands, I feel like a lot of stuff happens but that nothing really changes with Lane. Additionally, I wish we got to know more about Lane's specific magic. It seems to play a pretty big role in things, but even by the end of the book I feel like I know more about Mackenzie's and Adya's magic than Lane's. From what we do see of it, I'm interested in Lane's connection to the dead and whether that came about as a result of her brush with death specifically or the combination of dying and coming back Deaf. Her abilities are definitely interesting. Colton is someone who is a bit in over his head. He's involved in the mystery of the missing/dead students and he's interested in Lane, who's off-limits. This involvement means he oscillates between being boyish and gentle and being more mean, though this latter part tends to be reluctant. I almost feel like Colton has more character development than Lane. He has to face what happened when he was a kid in order to mature as a character, and he is able to look at things and where is in the book and come to terms with things. According to some of the other reviews I've read, this is supposed to be slow burn, which I have to disagree heavily with. It's more like insta-crush. Thankfully, things don't really start to get going until Lane and Colton begin hanging out together more. That being said, it did kind of feel like one of those instances of "he was a boy, she was a girl." While Andrew did a good job of creating chemistry between the two of them, I didn't really feel there was a solid grounding behind that chemistry that prompted a relationship. I really wish Adya and Mackenzie had been included more in the story. Adya was introduced after she and Lane met, which is a bit weird since they're roommates and the book starts when Lane arrives at college. Adya has some kind of medium/psychic ability that proves helpful a couple times throughout the book. Mackenzie, on the other hand, is introduced at their first meeting, but she goes from stranger to BFF off-page, which is somewhat jarring. I can't really remember what Mackenzie's specific magic is, but she has plenty of emotional and relationship support to offer Lane. Both girls seem to be close with Lane, and I liked the parts of their relationship that are on-page. I would've liked to see more of their friendship, I think both the book and Lane could've benefited from a more developed friendship. The plot focuses largely on the mystery of the dead students. It's clear from the beginning that both Colton and Lane play a role in what's going on, but it isn't super clear what those roles are. I liked the mystery in the story and how it ended up involving almost everything in the book, it was a clean way of bringing together pieces that didn't always match up. It also has a solution that I didn't guess on my own. It was a nice surprise to find out what was going on and how things were related. Overall, this is a fun read if you're looking for YA fantasy dark academia. I do wish there'd been a bit more character development on all fronts and that more focus was given to the magical aspect of things, since I found it to be really interesting.

Hey I saw your tips for drawing muslims but do you have any for writing them?

hello hello, thanks for the ask!

WRITING MUSLIM CHARACTERS

stereotypes to avoid

– the “oppressed hijabi” trope

listen, most of us wear hijab because we want to. because we grew up around it. because it’s as natural as wearing a shirt. please stop acting as though we all despise our hijab and our religion

– the “misunderstanding parents” trope

why are all muslim parents emotionally or physically abusive in fiction? i personally have an amazing relationship with my parents. also not all muslim parents are trying to suck the joy out of their children’s lives. they’re just trying to keep their kids safe. also this trope usually gets pretty racist because the reason they don’t understand their child is because they’re “not from here” and “don’t get how things are done” so yknow, avoid that.

– the “abusive dad” trope

listen. i’m fully aware that abusive parents are horrible and something that people should be made aware of, but when every muslim dad in fiction is abusive, that’s just islamophobia. just. give us good relationships with our family!!!

– the “silent mom” trope

how come muslim mothers in fiction have no lines? have no voice? they’re just silent products of a household there to cook and clean. what is that all about?? please. just stop

– the “White Boy Romance” trope

oh, all muslims know where i’m going with this Do. Not. Have. A. Hijabi. Take. Off. Her. Hijab. For. A. White. Boy. please. don’t have her take it off, period. but especially not for romance. actually, if your narrative involves a muslim girl stepping away from her religion and taking off her hijab and realizing she’s happier this way, throw the whole story away. i’m sorry, but if you’re not muslim, this isn’t something for you to write about. this is not your story to write, and writing it will be extremely islamophobic. avoid a typical romance. muslim romances do not occur the way western romances do. either you gotta be okay with that and write it properly, or you should do your best to avoid it altogether.

THINGS TO DO

– let them have friends!! let them have muslim friends!! especially if they live in an area that has a high muslim population.

– let them talk about things that aren’t their religion. listen, my muslim friends and i talk about religion occasionally, but i can assure you, more of our conversation revolves around the hot boy of the week or about whatever shows we’re watching. and in terms of non-muslim friends, religion isn’t a point of tension. we respect and celebrate our differences, and that’s it. we talk about it sometimes, but we don’t argue about it

– make it clear that we’re muslim without just saying it. have us take a step aside to pray. have a character compliment our hijabs. have us fast in ramadan (or make up fasts in the winter). have us eat halal meat. say bismillah before we eat. say alhamdulillah after sneezing or when we’re thankful. subhanallah when we see something beautiful

– we’re not nuns. we find people attractive. we discuss it. it’s not a big deal

– make sure we have a personality that doesn’t revolve around our religion. yes, our religion can be a huge aspect of our identity and life, but no, it’s not the only thing. make them obsessed with a show. give them nervous habits. what do they collect? are they introverted? you tell me!

– avoid intimately close friendships with the opposite gender. casual acquaintances is fine, but this is something i would personally avoid writing if possible

– research what is haram. i’ll give you a basic list:

- pork

- meat that isn’t halal

- gelatin (unless it’s plant gelatin or from a halal store)

- missing prayers

- sex before or outside of marriage

- cheating in any way

- abuse towards your family (yes, this may come as a shock to some, but it’s actually prohibited by islam)

- drinking

- drugs

do more research, of course, but this is a basic list.

i think that about covers it: don’t stereotype us, make sure it’s noticeable that we’re muslims, give us personalities, and make sure we’re avoiding haram stuff

before anyone comes at me: i’m aware that there are muslims who don’t follow the rules and who do haram things and who don’t like their religion and don’t have stable family relationships etc, etc. BUT when that is our only representation in media, it’s islamophobic. show us good muslims, who like their religion, whose religion is their identity, who don’t feel like their religion is causing them to lose out. because we exist.
