The Fire Sermon by Francesca Haig
4.0
I really enjoyed this dystopian future - and then the EU referendum happened, and I had to take a few days off from it.
Despite the conspiracy of politics, the story was compelling, the characters great to spend time with, and I didn't mind the first-person narrative, which is something I usually avoid. I did predict the major plot thing, but it was well-executed.
My one big complaint? That was not an ending. I really hate it when books in series don't end at a nice concluding point, but leave you feeling as if you're at the end of a chapter.
But yes, I will read the next one, so maybe it did its job.
