A review by bambinochance
Of Ash and Embers by Jenna Wolfhart
4.0
The books are trending in the right direction!
I still don't love the center love story - The first book just did such a poor job setting it up. But the world and plot got more interesting. We got some different perspectives and some new couples potentially forming.
I liked the mom's death. It felt realistic that Tessa never got closure with her mom. And her mom ran off without saying goodbye to her kids?! Tessa deserved to be angry.
Also, all books should have a recap chapter at the beginning like this one! It was so helpful to get a quick synopsis of the first book to refresh my memory on the world and characters.
