Initially, I was tempted to DNF Incendiary more than once because I didn’t think it was worthwhile to continue during the middle section of the book. However, after reading the end, I REALLY WANT TO CONTINUE READING! Illusionary (Hollow Crown #2), here I come!

There are certainly some plot twists, but I did manage to see some of them from a mile away. :)

What separates this series from other YA fantasy is that the story of the MC's love interest precedes the book, the love interest is absent for most of the book, and that most of the book is not focused on romance.

You are not a girl. You are vengeance in the night.

I submerge myself beneath the surface of the water again and hold my breath, knowing no matter where I am or what I do, I will never escape the heat of flames and the taste of ash. But I no longer want to escape. I want to wield that fire and watch this place burn.
