Set Fire to the Gods by Kristen Simmons, Sara Raasch
4.0

3.5 stars, rounding up.

I enjoyed a lot about this. The Chosen One/Special One trope is ... well, it’s a trope. It’s done well enough here that it wasn’t too grating. The characters are good, and the realizations may be a little cheesy but they’re ok.

Actually, I think that pretty much sums up how I feel about this book. A lot of it may be overdone and cliche, but I’m okay with how it’s done here.

The one thing that I thought was really interesting and wished we could have seen more of was the subjugation of the Undivine. But I know that’s not this story so I get it.
