Second book wasn‘t much better. I just don‘t feel much connection with characters and I got a bit confused at the end! It‘s all okay and typical YA fantasy but not in a particularly good way. It‘s off the shelf though! #BookSpinBingo

TheAromaofBooks I do love the covers for this series, even though I wasn't a huge fan of the books haha 4y
flaminglibrary Thank you! Everyone raved about these books and I was so excited for them but there were such a let down for me, I never even picked up book three 4y
Ash.on.the.line @flaminglibrary I agree! I do have book three so might pick it up but could easily be a bail! 4y

I keep having to pause this audio book to write down quotes. While I love the main characters in this trilogy it's the secondary characters who keep breaking my heart...

I didn‘t enjoy this as much at the first. I felt there was some pacing issues. Definitely a slow start, but it did pick up towards the end. Also the indecisiveness of the characters, while understandable, got to be a bit trying. But I did enjoy it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Snow Like Ashes was good. Interesting plot and nice world building, and of course a minor cliffhanger... So onto the next one. 😊

Ugh. I had to switch to the audiobook because I could t get into the physical book. That didn't help. This book was slow and so full of angsty love triangle thoughts. And why was Mather's POV included? I found it annoying and out of place. 🙄

Finished this one! Wasn't as good as 'Snow like fire'. I had the feeling that not much was going on and the ending was a bit chaotic. Still love the world building and Mather by the way!

Book 2 of the "Snow Like Ashes" series is fast paced and greatly expands the world of the first book. Meira is now queen and has a hell of a lot of pressure on her, so much that she tries to become what others want her to be. The book is also told from not only Meira's first person voice, but also Mather's 3rd pov- this made me like him a lot more & relate to him more than just "the best friend." The addition of the badassCeridwen is awesome too!

Honestly, the whole journey they took, getting to see more of the world made this book so amazing. I love all the development, both of characters and the storyline and I absolutely CANNOT wait for the next book.

Also, can we talk about how absolutely chaotic and insane that ending was?! I'm sitting here in shock, barely able to formulate thoughts properly.

It was annoyingly obvious what was going on that the main character just couldn't figure out. ending was very predictable up until the last page. it just kind of cut out without finishing. I get that she's setting up for the next story, but I would have at least liked some semblance of an ending.

Gah. It's so painfully obvious that *possible spoiler* is a bad guy. I'm starting to get frustrated with how dumb Meria is for not recognizing it. 😠

Definitely has second book syndrome (slower, less action, more politics) but still well worth the time. And I'm convinced the next book will be spectacular based on 1 and 2!

I've been sitting on this book since October and still haven't picked it up. I think the "mixed" review I've read have been keeping me away. Thoughts?

OSChamberlain I say dive in. I always check out reviews for the hell of it. But in the end I need to form my own opinion. What some might despise may turn out to be your favorite book of all time, and vice versa. 9y
