The Ones We Burn
by Rebecca Mix
Pros: This book is one that has been sat on my shelf for a while, I received it a few months ago as part of a Fairyloot box and there it has sat since.
As a part of a new book group I have joined we chose this book to be our first Book of the Month and I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed it.
It was adventurous, challenging and at times dark and kept me guessing throughout. This book has a mix of character and plot building and I have to admit I am all here for it! Books that focus on either one or the other always seem to me like they are missing something and this book somehow managed to balance them perfectly. I found the characters extremely lovable and the main character even gave me slight Manon Blackbeak vibes from SJMS Throne of Glass series. The inclusivity of diverse characters within the book was also a breath of fresh air and the ease at which this was included into the story was really nice to see.
Cons: The only thing I would say about this book is that the ending seemed quite rushed and abrupt, if it wasn't for this it would have easily been a 4 star review.
All in all a very pleasant read and I will look out for more books from this author in the future!
