Girl on Fire by Gemma Amor
5.0
After leaving her abusive father, Ruby Miller crashes her car in the desert. She catches on fire, and all goes black. But like a phoenix, she is reborn...
To cause chaos. To spread her anger.
This was one of my favorite stories in Cruel Works of Nature, one of Gemma's short story collections (the entire collection was a 5 star read for me, go read it). I'm really happy to see that we got an extended version, and it was wonderful. The little nods to her other works were also a very nice touch. I love when authors include past stories. That being said, I would definitely read Cruel Works of Nature first, so you can be like me and smile like an idiot when you see a reference.
Gemma's writing keeps you wanting to know more. Keeps you flipping pages. I finished this novella in just a couple of hours, and while I've finished the last of my books for #AugustForAmor, I'm already itching to pick up another read from Gemma Amor.
