Cinders & Ashes by X. Aratare
5.0

I reread this book just before the sequel was launched. Still couldn't wait for book 2!!
Elven people and mystery is my favorite combination.
The MCs are easy to love and makes you invested in learning more about them and the world they live in. The story is a joy to read every time.
Overall, the book has the vibe of an old Celtic myth - a truly magical fairytale - so much more than just another gay retelling of Cinderella.
