bookchallenge week 33

boek 111 was een boek wat een tijdje terug erg gehyped werd in BookTube land en ik snap nu ook wel waarom. het is een spannend boek wat erg goed geschreven is. beiden verhalen zijn erg goed en ben dol op beiden personages. kan niet wachten om het vervolg hierop te lezen maar duurt nog even eer die uitkomt.

20560137an Ember is the Ashes – Shabaa Tahir

Laia is a slave.
Elias is a soldier.
Neither is free.

Under the Martial Empire, defiance is met with death. Those who do not vow their blood and bodies to the Emperor risk the execution of their loved ones and the destruction of all they hold dear.
It is in this brutal world, inspired by ancient Rome, that Laia lives with her grandparents and older brother. The family ekes out an existence in the Empire’s impoverished backstreets. They do not challenge the Empire. They’ve seen what happens to those who do.
But when Laia’s brother is arrested for treason, Laia is forced to make a decision. In exchange for help from rebels who promise to rescue her brother, she will risk her life to spy for them from within the Empire’s greatest military academy.
There, Laia meets Elias, the school’s finest soldier—and secretly, its most unwilling. Elias wants only to be free of the tyranny he’s being trained to enforce. He and Laia will soon realize that their destinies are intertwined—and that their choices will change the fate of the Empire itself.

boek 112 was het vervolg op Dorothy must Die. en dit boek was weer net zo spannend en leuk als het eerste deel. kan vooral niet wachten om het derde deel te lezen maar duurt nog even eer die uitkomt. heb gelukkig nog wel de drie novella’s.

HER WORLD IS CHANGED FOREVER
Callie lost her parents when the Spore Wars wiped out everyone between the ages of twenty and sixty.

He hires teens to rent their bodies to Enders—seniors who want to be young again. Callie, desperate for the money that will keep her, Tyler, and Michael alive, agrees to be a donor. But the neurochip they place in Callie’s head malfunctions and she wakes up in the life of her renter, living in her mansion, driving her cars, and going out with a senator’s grandson.
