feeling like I was inside the book
Reviewed: 05-07-24
Before I started listening to this book I thought there was no way it could possibly be better than the first book. I was completely wrong. Some of the preveais relationships escalated, new connections between characters were made, and death was defied more than once. I went through every twist and turn with zora and enara, feeling the pain, love, loss, joy, anger, relief, and fear, all pumle into each other. I never imagined a book could make me feel so much and yet it did. I was very satisfied with the ending to this duology. It let me imagine what happened afterward, though I was glad Sara B. Larson did not rouen it with multiple books as most series eventually did. I also was glad that Caitlin Kelly narrated this book as she did sisters of shadow and light she deserves alot of appreciation. I give a standing ovation to the author and narrator.

Story
Zuhra and Inara have grown up in the Citadel of the Paladins, an abandoned fortress where legendary, magical warriors once lived before disappearing from the world - including their Paladin father the night Inara was born. On that same night, a massive, magical hedge grew and imprisoned them within the citadel. Inara inherited their father’s Paladin power; her eyes glow blue and she is able to make plants grow at unbelievable rates, but she has been trapped in her own mind because of a "roar" that drowns everything else out.

I absalootly loved this book! the author made it feel as though you were inside the book with detail beyond compare. sisters of shadow and light had everything, from romantic relationships to emotional struggle. enara and zora's sistership was so full, the care that they had for each other was unmatchable. I can't wait to see what happens in the next book! as for the narrator, I loved how she changed her voice to match wich characters were speeking. I think she did an exceptional job with this book and I hope she I doing woriors of wing and flame (wich is the next book) as well.

stories woven together
Reviewed: 08-06-20
At times, it was hard to listen to. I hurt for the people. For what seemed like the loss and perhaps the neglect of native culture. I am glad I finished. The stories woven together in the end. It reminds me of how we are connected. This is my first Native Audible book. I hope to listen to more.

Loved it. I need cliff notes. And a print version to mark up and sticky tab. The author/narrator is wonderful. I want to go sit on her couch and share more stories. I am so thankful for this book. I have already encountered many of the topics and will undoubtedly cover more.

This book is incredible. It is packed with incredible research based interpersonal skills for leading and everyday life. Its told using real life stories using humor and emotion to captivate the reader. I listen to Audible on my commute. What I needed for thos book, was a notebook to write down all the incredible lessons. What I need to continue to grow, is a conference where these skills are taught and we have the opportunity to practice them. Thank you Brene Brown for all your hard work and dedication. Well done.
