Una llama entre cenizas (Una llama entre cenizas 1) | 
There will be so much more in between. So much uncertainty. I don‘t know if we‘ll survive the catacombs, let alone the rest of it.
But it doesn‘t matter. For now, these steps are enough. These first few precious steps into darkness. Into the unknown.
Into freedom.

pickI've been meaning to read this for years and finally got the time (read will) to.
Laia and Elias are both victims of circumstance and their choices will decide the course of the entire Empire.
I loved how the story unfolds, how it developed, how new characters got introduced with their roles defined. Above all, I loved how it ended. How the premise for the next book was set.
It's a beautiful book and I can't wait to see what happens next.
4.5/5 🌟
pickI was immediately sucked into this world of Masks hunting Scholars, and appreciated the lengths Laia wanted to go to in order to save her brother as well as Elias's frustration with the system he was born into. Will be continuing the series if I can find the next book!
pickSuch a good book that @thegirlwiththelibrarybag recommended when I was away back in 2016 and was one of the things that kept us close was discussing books. Loved going to all the book shops with you. 📚
My big brother reaches home in the dark hours before dawn, when even ghosts take their rest. He smells of steel and coal and forge. He smells of the enemy.

pickHighly entertaining. Definitely reading the next book.
The author has created a world with amazing characters, and I am in awe of the writing style. Love this series.
pickSome of the writing was really good, and the characters had some (uneven) development.
An unwanted son and a daughter who doesn‘t want to find her own strength must navigate in the shadows of their parents and try to understand who they can become and what price they are willing to pay. An intersection of Roman/Desert Nomad/Learned Scholars society & magic is a cool world but under explored.
2.5/5 stars, read for a military/magic/assassin story
pickDefinitely enjoyed this book. The world was interesting and leaves you wanting more. First book drops you into the world but never overwhelms you with a lot of information right from the start. Definitely recommend reading it #booktube #bookreview

pickI had known this book was going to be a banger when it came out. I bought it immediately during debut!
You know what happens to books who get bought immediately by people like me though? They get thrown into a massive TBR pile. My reading pace is massively slower than it used to be, so this has been my only summer read so far.
Highly recommend, cannot wait to get my hands on book two!
starting chapter 5, good so far!
Into freedom.

so-soI don‘t know that I‘m enjoying this… book one was meh. Let‘s see if book 2 will redeem the series or if I bail…
pickThis was an astonishing read. This book has me excited from beginning to the end. I kept reading page after page trying to see what would happen next. It was phenomenal how the story was told from two perspectives. I can‘t wait to see what happens in the rest of the series. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I finished 4/5 of these for #Asianreadathon. I enjoyed them all but my favorite was Ember in the Ashes. I can't wait to read the next book! The one I didn't finish, The Hundred years War on Palenstine, I'm taking it slow, but should finish soon.
Set in a rich, high-fantasy world inspired by ancient Rome, Sabaa Tahir's AN EMBER IN THE ASHES told the story of Laia, a slave fighting for her family, and Elias, a young soldier fighting for his freedom.

so-soMy first read by Sanaa Tahir. Interesting sibling adventure.
“I live with the guilt. But there are two kinds of guilt, girl: the kind that drowns you until you‘re useless, and the kind that fires your soul to purpose.”
Life is made of so many moments that mean nothing. Then one day, a single moment comes along to define every second that comes after.

pickI really should have read this slower. I devoured it too quickly and then had to place a hold on the second book in the series because someone else has it checked out from my library system!
Anyway, yes, I enjoyed this one so much that waiting an estimated week for the next book is rather annoying! 😂
pickThis weeks read. Finishing up the An Ember In The Ashes series. Halfway point on book 3 and I can not recommend this series enough already. Rating for Book 1 & 2- ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
pickI have to say… I really liked this.
Fantasy is NEVER my go-to genre. But I got this audiobook as a freebie years ago. I finally got around to listening to it.
And I was captivated. I already got the next installment ready to go.
Tahir does such a tremendous job of creating these characters that it doesn‘t matter what world she puts them in: you want to spend time with them and root for them.
So go do it. You‘ll be glad you did.
1. Fast moving. Give me the action!
2. Tagged. I love the Ember in the Ashes series! Sabaa Tahir is an auto buy author for her magnificent plots!

First half of December: Part 2. The Song of Achilles was soooo good. I'm also really enjoying Sabaa Tahir. Currently 1/2 way through A Torch Against the Night.
pickI was looking for a new series since I‘m waiting for the next Sarah J Maas offering and a bookseller recommended this one and I was pleasantly surprised. Not the same dystopian trope at all and the cliffhanger is solid enough I shall go and get the next in the series. Trying to get caught up here before the holiday read challenge starts.
pickLow pick!
Not as trope-y as some other YA books.
August reading wrap up! I started school this month so I didn‘t get as much reading or reviewing done as I had wanted to. I‘ve also decided to stop reading the Ember in the Ashes series. It was a big disappointment. 😢

pick5/5 for this one! I have no idea why I waited to long to read this one! I was immersed in this world from the start. I had to know everything. I love Laia and Elias. I need to read the next one right now.

pickOverall Rating 4¾⭐
Why did I wait so long to read this, it was flipping fantastic? I haven‘t been this into a fantasy in quite some time. I loved the characters, the world is so dark, so bleak and so very interesting. It kind of has a dystopian feel to it, even. It also has a little bit of the supernatural. My only issue is the love square that the author had going on...it wasn't a deal-breaker, though.
pickHi everyone! I am new here! I was kinda tired of Instagram and I looked up other app about books.
I loved all the action, the plot twists, the secrets, and all the supernatural things going on, something I didn't really expected at the beginning of the book.
The characters are awesome, you can see all the work the author put into making the voices of Laia and Elias be different.
Even when you fall, you get up.
Because you are Always Victorious.
The motto of Gens Veturia from Sabaa Tahir's Ember Quartet.

Thanks for the tag @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks !
pickI have no idea what took me so long to pick up this book and now I completely understand the hype. The tension and character building is amazing. I have never read a book with such a great love triangle (square) where I love all the characters equally and have no idea how I want them to end up. I care for them all! I Will definitely read the rest of this series.

pickI was hooked to the story from the very beginning, no point at which I was bored or wanted to keep the book down. It made me want to keep on reading.
It has dual POV, it was very interesting to understand both the characters and their conflicts. All the characters are flawed and this makes the story feel realistic. If you are looking for a book which pulls you in with it's amazing story and has flawed but lovable characters, this book is for you.
pick5/5 ⭐️ I loved AEITA this time, just as much as I did the first time!
I am determined not to make my usual mistake with a fantasy series- where I read the most recent book and spend half of it trying to remember how the previous ones went. In preparation for book 4, I‘m starting from the beginning and listening to these again - I‘m determined to fully enjoy it! I saw it at my library the other day so just need to be patient!
