darlingdianaa 's review for:
We Hunt the Flame
by Hafsah Faizal
This is one of the best books I've read this year!
First, I love how our MOC's first lines are the reverse of each other:
"People lived because she killed"
"People died because he lived"
Yes, give me DUALITY.
Our story follows the typical YA Fantasy outline of:
1. Lost Item/Quest
2. Ragtag team/found family
3. Trauma
4. Villain and twists
5. Emo boy who doesn't believe in love (until he sees her)
BUT there is added bonus of it
1. Not being western (so refreshing!!)
2. There is the added pressure of constraints on women (and defying this)
3. The magic system is a little different
4. A lot of great phrases and words
I really enjoyed this story because I really liked Zafira. I also really like Nasir and I am rooting from them. This book ended in a big cliffhanger and I am ready to pick up the next book!
