A review by booksandladders
Fate of Flames by Sarah Raughley
Did not finish book.
Disclaimer: I received an eARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
DNF @ 35%
I made it farther than my typical 25% before DNF-ing only because I am reviewing it on Books Are My Fandom for one of our BAMF Reviews, but I just couldn't read anymore. Thinking about going back to it is making me want to cry. I was bored and I feel like with a book that has destructo-beasts and girls with superpowers, I should be ENTHRALLED not wondering how Jurassic Park was still made in 1991 when the world had been taken over by beasts in 1865. The world-building was not the greatest in this and I felt like a lot of what happened was Very Convenient™ rather than helping to bring the novel along.
If you want to read a really similar book (at least from the first bit), I would recommend checking out [b:Steelheart|17182126|Steelheart (Reckoners, #1)|Brandon Sanderson|https://d2arxad8u2l0g7.cloudfront.net/books/1357576738s/17182126.jpg|21366540] by Brandon Sanderson. At least I could get through that one. (That makes it sound bad, I really enjoyed Steelheart).
