When I was given an advance copy of this book, many things happened at once. One, I am almost fell over dead that I was given this opportunity. Two, I knew I had to make sure that I’d be able to read this without interruption. And three, I had to pinch myself to make sure that the book sitting in my hands was not a dream. It wasn’t and for that, I am forever grateful to Jen and the ladies at Blue Box Press.

From Blood and Ash was so much more than I had expected. I have read plenty of Armentrout’s books in the past but this was Jen’s first take on fantasy. Yes, there is difference between paranormal and fantasy and that difference being the set in the time and the world created. Jen does a phenomenal job of creating a world that her readers can so easily visualize and feel come to life off the pages and want to get lost in.

Armentrout weaves a very intricate and enthralling story line that will stick with readers for day, weeks, months to come and I have no doubt will have many re-reading over and over. From Blood and Ash is the story of The Chosen One, The Maiden – Poppy. She has been raised the majority of her life knowing that she will Ascend and bring a new life to her people and land. However, with that has come ALOT of restrictions and rules she’s had to follow. However, as Poppy got older, her penance for wanting to forge her own life has caused her to defy certain rules and expectations. And now as she gets closer to her Ascension, she finds herself questioning everything.

I can hear many of you now – the blurb and plot sounds similar to other books. Ohhhh, let me tell you could not be any more wrong. This book is so much more than what I told you. Armentrout delivers a story blended with high suspense and action, dramatic scenes filled with so many emotions that you will find yourself going from tears of sadness to rage of anger. And let’s not forget the new emotions that Poppy begins to feel but ignores when Hawke joins the ranks of the Royal Guard. This just another layer added into an already enticing story line. Poppy is fierce yet endearing and heartfelt. This plot is intense and gripping – it’s impossible to not find yourself completely submersed in this world.

I cannot tell you how much I love this book. From Blood and Ash is my first book hangover of 2020 and I really need the next book. Yes, the book does end with a slight cliffhanger, but readers are given so many answers too at the end. But we are also left wanting to know where things go from here with Poppy.

If you have read JLA or a fantasy book before, you are going to absolutely love this book. If you have never read JLA or fantasy, you cannot go wrong with this book; you too will love this book. There is a lot of world building at the beginning and that is something that is needed in fantasy books. So please keep that mind if you have never read fantasy before. Once you get into the thick of things, you will appreciate the world building and how important it is.

NOW GO BUY THIS BOOK!!!!
