A Sky Beyond the Storm by Sabaa Tahir
4.25

 Rating: 4.25 stars

 “Emifal firdaant. May death claim me first.”

It’s crazy to think that this series, that I started when I was 16, is over for me after 8 years.

 “You are broken. But it is broken things that are the sharpest. The deadliest. It is broken things that are the most unexpected, and the most underestimated.”

It’s hard to write a review for the last book in a series without saying too much.

But I will say that Sabaa Tahir’s writing is truly in its own league. I love the way she creates and fleshes out her characters and the worldbuilding is phenomenal.

 “Can I kick him?" my brother asks. "I'm going to kick him."
"He saved your life Darin."
"A small kick," he argues. "It wouldn't even hurt him. Look at him, skies. It would probably break MY foot."
"NO."
"Fine." Once past Elias, my brother turns around and mimes a kick, grinning.


I cried a lot and I smiled a bit. This was truly a very honest outlook on war and its consequences. I will need at least 10 business days to recover.
