I truly think people are going to love this book as I did. We have elemental magic, trials to win a crown, a very mysterious history and maybe a love triangle.
I absolutely loved reading about Blaze. At first, you meet this girl who has been secluded her whole life while at the same time the world hates her, for she created a deadly storm when she was born. The start of the book with her birthday party, also her twin’s party ofc, was so full of drama that even I felt her stress and anxiety. When we get to the trials, i also felt her emotion and her worries. The writing itself made me feel for Blaze. I loved how she became a different person and grew from her past. Finally learned to not fear her storm powers. The relationship between her and her sibling is also very precious and it goes along with the new friendships she begins.
Fox was a good surprise (also weird name? But it fits somehow). I did hope we would get a character like that in the book. When we got hints about, I got extra excited. Here is a boy who also provoked a big disaster event, just like Blaze, but instead embraced his deadly power. Also the banter between fox and blaze was top tier. I needed more scenes with those too.
Now the plot twists (yes twists, in plural) toward the end were just amazing. I didn’t see Hal’s twist coming, like at all, and boy was I angry. Then we see the final trials (trying not to spoil it) but yeah I felt that. Then coronation scene, boom 💥, and that’s all I’m gonna say. This is definitely a five star ⭐️ book and I really hope people don’t skip it.
