I love the character development I see in Theodosia in this story. She is quiet and fearful at first, and grows independent and strong even when others try to shut her down. If I could change something, I would end the book with Blaise,…

I loved Ash Princess. Theo had a really tragic backstory, starting from when she was six and her mother was murdered in front of her and she was given the name Thora and the title of Ash Princess. She'd been imprisoned by the Kaiser for…

I wanted to love this book, but it was honestly so hard to push myself to get through. The ending BARELY made me want to get the next book to find out what happens next, so at least it did that; I just hope it gets better. The character…

I found this to be a bit of a common story, but it was enjoyable all the way through and there were some twists at the end that I'm looking forward to hearing more about in the next book.

Interesting plot. Definitely has strong elements of 'well, at least it can't get any worse' followed by 'oh, I guess it can'. Excellent villain and twists.

Liked this new author. Found it easy to skip through the "padding for length". Looking forward to the sequel.

I have taken a long hiatus from fantasy novels, because they start to read the exact same, but I was intrigued enough by the summary of this title that I decided to give it a chance, and I was pleasantly surprised. A teen girl that has…

This cover is absolutely gorgeous and is what initially drew me in. I found this book to be an engaging fantasy with a dark side. There's a love triangle, magic and even some betrayal. I think fans of Sarah J. Maas and Leigh Bardugo…

Characters: 8/10 Plot: 9/10 Writing: 8/10 Going into this read, I was a bit burnt out (pun intended) on YA fantasy, but this presented a refreshing take on a genre I love. Though it had many familiar plot elements, the author spun them…
