This was such a great start to the trilogy! Amara feels like such a real character, and you really want her to get out of her tough situation and make her dreams come true. But it’s also heartbreaking in the fact that it’s still a story about Ancient Pompeii. And there weren’t a lot of happy endings in that city.
