This book was written to test my tear gland's power. Will I ever be able to forgive Sabaa Tahir for a very particular event in the book? I think not.

This book has empowered me and wrecked me simultaneously over and over again. ESPECIALLY AS A DESI WOMAN IN WAYS I PROBABLY WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO PUT IN WORDS.

I am so happy that I finally finished the An Ember in the Ashes series. This has been my one must finish series for the year 2025. I started it back in 2016 when book 1 first came out and absolutely fell head over heels for it. Book 2, however, the first time I read it, I just liked it, but it was nothing special. My reread of it, however, loved it. Basically, it has been a long time since I started the series vs when the last 2 books came out. Too much time has passed that I knew deep down that I had to reread the first two books in order to continue on with the series. The other thing keeping me from finishing the series was the covers. I just thought the covers with the people on the front were ugly, so I was not keen on reading the series right away, and also I started college and had no time to read. Many factors were stopping me ultimately from finishing it, but it is done, and it is safe to say I had a good time with it.

An Ember in the Ashes is still probably my favorite. Then A Torch Against the Night, A Sky Beyond the Storm, and finally, A Reaper at the Gates. All books were 4 stars or up. This is a solid YA series, but I would classify this as older YA. The books can be a bit gruesome and deal with some more mature themes than a younger YA story. As someone who is an adult, I think that this story can very easily be enjoyed by an adult audience.

From where the story first started to where it ended, I can say it was quite the journey. There were so many twists and turns, some were predictable, others shocked me, but overall I would classify it as one of my favorite YA fantasy series and I am looking forward to reading more Sabaa Tahir novels in the future!

This book absolutely wrecked me. I think this is my favorite book in the series and, honestly, my favorite read of the year. It’s also the first series where I’ve given every single book 5 stars. Though, I did have to take a break halfway through because it was just... so much. This book is the definition of stress fantasy.

Helene completely broke me. Watching her lose everything, but still not giving up on fighting for the empire. And Harper?? The two of them had me in tears. I’m literally gonna start crying again just writing this.

And the way everything wrapped up between Elias and Laia? Perfect. It was such a satisfying and bittersweet end to their story and the overall conflict. I couldn't have asked for a better conclusion. The whole ending part/chapters had my on hooked. I read the second half of the book in one sitting and I kept getting shocked and had my jaw dropped the whole time.

This series honestly means so much to me now...it’s climbed straight to the top of my all-time favorites list. And Sabaa Tahir, you're instantly added to my favorite authors. I’ll definitely be thinking about these characters for a long, long time. T^T
