Review: 
Welcome to my stop on TBR and Beyond's Tour for So Let Them Burn by Kamilah Cole! I am beyond excited to be able to take part in talking about this amazing book! I hope you click the banner at the top to follow along with the tour.

I’ve been on a fantasy kick recently so I was looking forward to reading this book whenever I could get my hands on it. I am beyond happy that I was able to.

Kamilah Cole has knocked it out of the park with her debut novel. It’s full of gorgeous prose and beautifully written action scenes. The characters are amazingly in-depth and the worldbuilding was layered and enticing. Kamilah did a wonderful job of writing a book that had me on the edge of my seat and constantly waiting for the next scene to happen. I never wanted to put the book down. I applaud Kamilah’s writing style because it has a way of dragging people into the story and keeping them there. A blend of intriguing plotlines, engaging worldbuilding, and likeable characters created a gorgeous story.

This book was a beautiful read. Kamilah Cole absolutely knocked it out of the park with this book. I wish I could read the sequel right now, but I’m willing to wait for it. I have high hopes for it!

Favorite Quotes:
"Being forced to learn the language of your oppressors is an oppression of the mind."

"If this was what a bond was supposed to be like, maybe it wasn't so bad after all."

"I'll lie to everyone else, but never to her."

"It was a country like any other, where the people in power devoured others whole just to gain more of it, while the people underneath them lived and worked and laughed and loved."

"I trust you."

"These dragons aren't here for you."
