annarella 's review for:

The Final Strife by Saara El-Arifi
5.0

I fell in love with the gorgeous cover and loved this story that talks about oppression and hope.
You are immersed in a world where there's those who rule and those who serve.. There's a lot going on and it's not a book to read without stopping and reflecting because there's a lot of food for thought.
We are used to fantasy as a sort of way to escape reality, this book is full of situations that could be in our world but also of people fighting to improve and change.
The author is a good storyteller and I loved how world building and characters were developed.
An excellent story, highly recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
