"A shadow in the ember, a light in the flame, to become a fire in the flesh."

I absolutely loved A Shadow in the Ember! It was one of my five star reads last year! I even listened to the audiobook to prepare me for the second installment, which was also a five star read. My reread as an audiobook is very much recommended if you need to reread in your life! 

I was really excited to jump into A Light in the Flame, so it was my first book of the year! I read a lot of reviews that say this is dull in the middle BUT this being a trilogy!!!! I think the middle book is always going to be a little slower of a read. But that’s just me! It’s setting up the third and final book of the trilogy and getting everyone prepared for the roller coaster ride that WILL happen in the third book. 

I know it’s going to happen and I’m going to pick up the book and read it the day it comes out!! I just love this world. The characters are well developed, and I love all of the side characters as much as I love the main characters! I think thats something that Jennifer L Armentrout does really well, her side characters are there for the story, just as much as the main characters. Their lives and storylines are just as important!

We all know cliffhangers are the bane of every bookworms existence, but this cliffhanger is everything! I know just like this book the third installment is going to start exactly where we finish and I’m here for it! I cannot wait to see where the story goes!
