Ashes of the Wise by A.L. Knorr

Not much to say about this book. I felt like most of it could have been skipped and instead combine this book with the next one, but oh well. Some weird transitions between chapters and things happening out of nowhere, while the character apparently noticed it before we as readers are told it happened.
Still doesn't feel like a YA in any way, and I keep forgetting that the characters are supposed to be barely 18yo. I guess that's kinda the point, tho, as YA does cover the age-gap between 16-21 or so, so I guess it fits, but it's unusual to find a book with this age group and this kind of lifestyle marketed as YA. I think. I tend to avoid YA., because I don't like the drama.
A little unsure about the disability-tag, but there is a character with some kind of ailment of the blood, which seem to cause fatigue. I have to admit I'm curious about the story behind that. Hopefully, we get to know more about it in the next book.
