From Dust, A Flame by Rebecca Podos
4.0
From Dust, a Flame was a magical book to jump into. Even though I knew next to nothing about this book before diving into it, I was very excited to see what was within. Luckily, for me, this book did not disappoint one freaking bit.
From the characters to the secrets, I was completely hooked. Especially after meeting Hannah and Gabe. I seriously enjoyed their sibling dynamic so much. If I could, I would want them to be in my family. As for finding out about a secret family? Well, that hit a little too close to home.
Other than that, I really enjoyed going through two timeframes throughout this. Mostly because we would be missing out on so much information if we didn't get both the past and present. Especially when you are dealing with three generations of a single family. So, in other words, everything meshed really well together, and I never found myself confused or bored.
In the end, I just really enjoyed the representation in this book. Okay, if I'm being honest here, I enjoyed every second of listening to this audiobook. It gave me all the feels and I wasn't disappointed one bit.
