An Ember in the Ashes
Sabaa Tahir, 2015
A conquered girl and a reluctant masked soldier move through an empire that turns children into weapons, where loyalty can be a death sentence.
Sabaa Tahir was born in Pakistan and grew up in California’s Mojave Desert, where her family ran a motel.
Feels like dread, death and hope.
The difference between guilt that crushes you and guilt that steers you.
There are two kinds of guilt. The kind that’s a burden and the kind that gives you purpose. Let your guilt be your fuel. Let it remind you of who you want to be. Draw a line in your mind. Never cross it again. You have a soul. It’s damaged but it’s there. Don’t let them take it from you. Sabaa Tahir, 2015
A conquered girl and a reluctant masked soldier move through an empire that turns children into weapons, where loyalty can be a death sentence.
