A book to read

Hope is a hard thing to find. We think we have yet at the slightest moment it can be gone. To be wining something then in one swift moment have your hopes dashed. But what if what you’re hoping for is something you can’t lose.  I have read a book like that. It was the Daughter of Smoke and bones.

That is what happens to Karou. She has a past like no other where it has been that her hopes and dreams have lead to her death. She dreamed of ending a war between angles and monsters; for when you all in love with the enemy, it will almost always end in tragedy.  

She had loved a angel, who also didn’t want to fight any longer. To be children of was which they both were a thing that had made them unwilling to just see blindly. They found hope which is something that all people can find, but to hang on to it you must give it more than just a little hope but more like a reason to hope for.

When we finish the first book we find that Karou must take hope to find the people that she might have lost. The only person who she has loved may have killed her people. That is betrayal and she loses hope and faith in him. Then she switches some of the bale to herself; for she let him live.  

The book is very good and I love it. For in it you find a strong female character who becomes a girl who kind of falls apart then has to piece herself back together; For now in her second life she is not just one but also something else.  The second book is also out and I say it is just as good with plot twists and unforeseen changes in people. You get to spend more time with the main characters but you also get to look at what warfare does to people, and how a great person can go from being very good to having self loathing of themselves over something they had done a long time ago.

The book at the beginning is kind of one for finding yourself but then if shifts to that of looking at warfare and its setbacks.  War had ruined life for both sides in creating armies of parentless children whose only purpose was to fight and then there was the Wishmonger who would bring back the dead

In the next book I’m hoping that the author will bring in a way to have the characters   come to terms with themselves. With self forgiveness and that of other and how do you put a society back together after a long war. These are thing that we can all learn from even if it isn’t in the real world but that of a place not even real. People can  grow form book if they just read to learn.
