The Candle and the Flame by Nafiza Azad
4.0

3.5/5

Okay I definitely need to reread this. My brain kept checking out.

Honestly, I don't think the plot was particularly unique. It's definitely been written before. It's the setting and characters which were really the strength. It was a pretty enjoyable standalone that I didn't think was too ambitious but also too surface.

More to come when I reread.
