An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir

4.0

Firstly, this cover is so beautiful. Secondly, wow. Admittedly, I wasn’t too sure about this book for the first 50 pages or so - I didn’t particularly care about Laia tbh and I found all of the info dumps on Elias’s part just confusing (there were sooo many names of all the soldiers and how it all works and it was a bit too much to remember all at once).

However, as the story progressed I got more and more invested in the characters and I’m excited to read the sequel soon!
