Song of Silver, Flame Like Night

Song of Silver; Flame like Night by Amélie Wen Zhao“She would take it. She would no longer be the flower. She would be the blade.”~~~ Words can’t describe my thoughts for this book. It held so much emotion, so much power. It felt so different as well from her other series Blood Heir Trilogy. I have never watched a K-drama but as I read this; I had one playing out in my head with so much detailing and enthusiasm. Any person could tell that the setting and plot had a lot of thought going into this. Then for the characters, their chemistry was fantastic. Let’s also not forget the comical side to this book, the banter between the two; I love me so good banter. Along with the slow burn, I turned into a giddy little girl with it sometimes. Sometimes I couldn’t stop smiling even when I wasn’t reading the book, I was thinking of certain parts. Then the ending broke me, I won’t go into detail. But it broke me, with one line. One scene, I crack like an egg. I stayed up one night till 3am to finish it, thank the gods I didn’t have to work the next day. But I stared into the abyss after that. *insert The Grinch* gif. Just do yourself a favor now. Preorder this book and be prepared to read it in Jan. For some of you, you may need tissues, just a warning. But thank you Amelie Wen Zhao, Random House Children, Delacorte Press, and the GetUnderlined booth at YALLfest for letting me have access to a physical copy to my favorite author. *side note: yes when I got this in my hands at YALLfest. I cried like a absolute baby. Don’t judge me*
