Why read it?
1 author picked Trial by Fire as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I think Rowan is honestly the guy we all dream to end up with.
But really, Lily is kick ass, despite the fact that we meet her with all her ailments at the beginning of the book. This is darker than Josephine normally writes, but it is so good! Such a unique take on witches, that I really hope she decides to continue building this series at a later stage again.
From Stephanie's list on YA fantasy with strong female characters.
