Incendiary by Zoraida Córdova
4.0
I had a LOT of expectations for this book, mostly because I was super intrigued by Renata's power. And I must say that the worldbulding (the fact that it was inspired by Inquisition Spain was just A+++) and the magical system were definitely my favorite part.
The rest... meh. Renata was quite an interesting main character (I'm sure that she will really blossom later in the trilogy, as I see good premises) and the writing style is *chef kiss*, but everything connected to the plot was not as original as I wanted it to be, just average: I've read so many books with similar vibes to this one that plot twists are too predictable to be interesting, and I can't anymore with love triangles (really, I'm super annoyed every time I find them).
So yes, probably you would like Incendiary if you don't read as much medieval fantasy as I do, and don't easily fall in love with the bad boy (that is in fact the good boy) that is 99% going to be killed in book 3.
