i struggled with the first half or so, i'll own my truth. i felt like the basis of the world was basic--especially the hierarchical caste system, it felt so cut and dry. and the action wasn't actioning for me! BUT... once things really started picking up, i was so intrigued. I read the last 1/3 of the book in one sitting. the world is more complex than it initially seems, and i want to know more asap!!!!
there are so many things beyond the main characters that are so interesting to me. like!

As soon as I finished the book I longed for the next one in the breathtaking The Ending Fire trilogy. The characters either made me love or hate them because of how human they felt. The hate did not come from finding it an annoying character. The characters were written out so well I despised them because of their horrible actions and/or beliefs. As if I was part of the story and ready to take them down. Each character had their strengths AND their flaws.
This is not a typical female hero story. This is a story of pain, sadness and fighting a system filled with lies and dirty secrets to oppress the native people of the land. This is a story filled with fire, passion and dedication. It's filled with friendship and love. Most of all, it's filled with the courage one needs to stand up against a system of oppression.
I do hope any person who is currently facing said oppression will find their well deserved freedom one day. May there be an ending fire to those who colonised and colonise. May we find the courage to stand up to any twisted system.
Thank you, Saara, for refuelling my fire to raise my voice and find my inner Sylah, Hassa and Anoor.
