Magnificent Beasts. Hard Magic. Epic Battles. An Ember in the Ashes meets Avatar: The Last Airbender in this propulsive, not-to-be-missed high fantasy debut inspired by Indian philosophy. Ainas world is governed by Toranic Law, a force that segregates people into upper and lower realms. Its said that if the sinful lowers commit themselves to kindness and charity, their souls will lighten, allowing them into the peaceful upper realms. But Aina, one of the few lowers to ever ascend, just wants to go back home. Aina is desperate to reunite with her mother, hoping shes survived the beasts and wars of her homeland alone. After failing to weigh down her soul with petty crimes, Aina joins a rebel group defying the authorities and bringing aid to those condemned to a life of suffering in the lower realms. Alongside Aina are two new recruits: Meizan, a ruthless fighter trying to save his clan from extinction, and Aranel, a spoiled noble spying for the powers that be. Before long, the rebels find themselves in the middle of a brewing war. On one side, a violent king of a lower realm is bent on destroying Toranic Law; on the other, the authorities of the upper realms will do anything to stay on top. Now the young rebels must face both sides head-on if they want to stop a conflict that could break not only Toranic Lawbut the universe itself.

Good morning, everyone! The moment you have all been waiting for!! Our official #BookSpin number is TWELVE! Our official #DoubleSpin number is ONE!! I have thoroughly enjoyed looking at everyone‘s lists & am really looking forward to seeing your reviews!!

My next post will be the #BookSpinBingo card. I am NOT tagging anyone on that post!! If you want to bingo, please just check my profile for the card. This saves me having to double tag ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont‘d) everyone/keep track of who wants to bingo and who doesn‘t!!

I use the same tag list for the entire year, so if you would like to be added or removed, please just let me know. It takes me a while to tag everyone (there are over 200 of you!!!) so I will add “FINISHED” to the last tag batch so you know whether or not I missed you. If I did, it was completely inadvertent. Sometimes I just spell someone‘s username wrong. ⬇

Mehso-so

What made this book so interesting was its view on good versus evil and how it keeps people apart. That this world keeps the good people from the bad, and those who do incredible good or bad will move up or down. I was continuously struck by how children are born in the lower realms, stuck in all that pain. The story took a long time to get going, amazing debut book that just had too many little things not match up by the end.

Spin day is always so exciting! My #bookspin is a pick from my aqua bookshelf and I‘ve decided on this Gwendolyn Brooks collection. My #doublespin is a queer lit pick, and this is going to be the month I finally read Giovanni‘s Room! @TheAromaofBooks

I received a finished copy of this from the publisher for a book tour I‘m taking part in. While the premise sounded promising, the book just did not work for me. I found myself zoning out the entire time I was reading it and every time my fiancé would ask me what it was about, all I could tell him was it was a fantasy with people, that‘s how little of an impression it was leaving on me. I finally decided to just DNF it.

Pickpick

While this was an enjoyable novel that hooked me right from the start, it also contains a deeper message, which makes this novel so much more. I adored Aina. She is such a strong character with her heart in the right place, and I really took an interest in what her future held for her. Between the themes, the characters, the action and the mystery, Spin of Fate is a novel that I not only enjoyed, but also made me eager for the next in the series.
