Ember in the ashes series 3 books collection set by sabaa tahir Paperback – January 1, 2018

Loved these books cannot wait for the fourth to come out. So many plot twists that keep you on your toes you never know who to root for. Addicting.

Loved the books

Received books quickly, however, cover art is not as advertised.

The first book intrigued me and held my interest. I finished it quickly. At the end, I couldn't wait to get book two and read it quickly, too, as the plot grew and the characters became familiar. The third book lost me. The twists and strategies always being thwarted by the main "bad guy" got old. The hero and heroine don't do what was expected all along. Then just when it looks like it's finally going to work out and everyone looks to enjoy a new way of life, it ends. I felt like I missed a step and fell down. It felt incomplete and lacking closure. I thought it was an unsatisfactory and disappointing ending to a relatively exciting series.

The plot is believable, and the storytelling is detailed and good. I just didn't like the POV used to pen the story. The chapters were labeled, but I found myself thinking that it was Keris talking when it should be Helene. Or Laia speaking when it was Elias. The first POV didn't help differentiate who was speaking because of the similarity in their (first POV) voices. Laia and Elias didn't grow on me. They annoyed me at times. I liked the character of Helene and how Tahir flipped the script with the character of Cook. While a few times things seemed too easy, everything that should go wrong goes wrong, and that's awesome.My rating is 3.3 (Book 1 = 3, Book 2 = 3 , and Book 3 = 4 ).
