Rating: 4.5/5 stars

★★★★★

Gilded Cage by Vic James is a dystopian fantasy book in Britain about Equals (upper class people with powers) and commoners without powers. These commoners aren’t even considered citizens until they go through a decade of “slavedays” where they are literally just slaves. They can choose to start their slavedays whenever they want in life, though.

An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir

Rating: 5/5 stars
★★★★★

An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir takes place in a brutal, dystopian-ish future where a girl named Laia witnesses her brother taken by the Empire, arrested for treason. Her goal is to find the Resistance, a group of Scholars that work against the Empire, and try to get them to help her save her brother. The other main character is Elias, one of the hand-picked masks for the Empire, trying to fight for what he believes in, even though that could very well get him killed.

Lots of spoilers in this review, because I'm full of emotions and have to talk about it. This is the only warning.
