Type: Trilogy

Series: An Ember in the Ashes

This book was awesome! Whoo, that was a roller coaster ride that was blast. Boy, did I have fun reading this book. Trickery, betrayal, death, and a little bit of romance! Beware of the love triangle between Helene, his best friend, and Laia, but Helias all the way. (Found out in the second book that Elias is twenty. A twenty with a seventeen-year-old? I'm sorry but I just don't support dating way older guys if you're under the age of nineteen. Plus, Elias and Helene are too perfect for each other.)

Anyway, I had fun with this book, although some of Laia choices could be gotten her caught. Other than that, great with stellar and original writing and plot!

PROS
▪Pace keeps moving
▪Keeps you at your toes
▪Really evil characters
▪All original

CONS
▪(Elias potentially dating a teenager)
▪Some of the choices Laia made

Overall, I rate An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir, four out of five stars.
