caylieratzlaff 's review for:
Bound by Firelight
by Dana Swift
Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the eARC of this novel. 3.5/5 stars.
Look, I liked the first one but I wasn't thrilled about it...but when I saw the ARC I knew I needed to request it just because I love Adraa and Jatin's banter (also, the chapter titles are once again gold in this).
Plot wise? I liked this a lot more than the first one. There is intense character development for Adraa and Jatin, and most of it is due to the fact they spend a large majority of the book away from each other. Adraa's storyline is heartbreaking but powerful, and I can see it resonating for others who go through intense trauma.
I think in trying to tie up storylines, there were still a lot that I was just ?!?! about, and I definitely feel like there was enough left unresolved that indicates more books in the series...but I'm not sure how it'll work with how it left Adraa and Jatin (don't worry, it's a happy ending).
The magic is still one of my favorites I've read in a fantasy...besides how it's named since it's literally the elements backwards (which pains me).
