Week 35 Review: Warriors of Wing and Flame

From Goodreads:
Acclaimed author Sara B. Larson continues her enchanting YA fantasy duology with a timeless fairytale feel in an original voice.

The doorway between the magical Visempirum and the human world has been reopened. Paladin are once more living in the citadel where Zuhra and Inara grew up completely isolated by the magical hedge that trapped them there. Amidst the brewing conflict between the Paladin and humans looms the threat of Barloc, who has stolen Inara's immense power and continues to elude the Paladin who are desperately searching for him.

In this sequel to Sisters of Shadow and Light, Inara and Zuhra must navigate the treacherous paths of self-discovery, their love for each other, and for the boys who have captured their hearts. Together, they search for the strength within themselves to bridge the divide between the two worlds they inhabit, even as war threatens to destroy everything—and everyone—they love.

My Review:
It was just fantastic to read this book! I absolutely loved the first one, and now with this one, well, I was just so excited, I wanted to see how things would wrap up. And it was just a really fantastic read, so easy, and so great to read!

Picking up immediately after things finished, there's a lot going on. There's dealing with loss, of both their Grandfather and of Inara's abilities. And man, seeing Inara's grief was hard to read, because she lost something very vital.

We got to see more of this world in this book, which was really interesting. We learned more about these characters as well, like what green eyes mean, which was a revelation that caused a few tense moments that were really great to read!

Man, I really enjoyed how it wrapped up! I wouldn't have expected it, and it was just so fitting! We didn't get through without casualties, and they hurt, but that just mean that it was well written. And that last chapter, yeah, it felt so right to have it end that way! It was just perfect!

Loved reading this book so much, it was an awesome second half to this duology!
