An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir
4.0
first of all, I love the writing this was really easy to read and the plot was so amazing, I think this is one of the few fantasy books in which I've been more invested in the plot than the romance or the side characters.
I loved Laia and Elias, it took me some time to care about them, but god they're amazing, I can't wait to read the rest of the series to see their development and the development of their relationship.
lastly, I know Helene is supposed to have a redemption arc and I started to understand her in the last chapter, but if you actually liked her in this book I'm concerned... like why would you like a character that is a colonizer and k1lls POC for fun????
