What am I reading right now? The City We Became by N.K. Jemisin

This urban fantasy novel brings New York City to life... literally. Each of the city's five boroughs manifest as a human with special abilities in order to fight a mysterious threat to the city itself. It's a fascinating and unique concept, and I love the way each borough manifests as a human representation of that area of New York. The city's history becomes relevant in the 'battles' fought in such interesting ways that I am constantly left guessing what will happen next. This is the first in The Great Cities series, and it's off to a fantastic start!
