Ally is Reading: Rebel of the Sands by Alwyn Hamilton 
I’ve made enough poor choices in regards to picking YA books in the past few months that I’ve been mildly put off by the genre, however with the recommendation from fellow TYF writer Bri I’ve gotten my hands on Rebel of the Sands by Alwyn Hamilton. I’m going into the book relatively blind to what it’s all about but already the first few pages have me hooked. Promising magic, adventure and a heroic and strong leading lady, it has everything it needs to be an automatic page turner. For a book I just finished (poor timing in regards to this post on my part), Alan Cumming’s autobiography Not My Fathers Son is a brutally honest retelling of abuse, survival and learning to love yourself and all of life’s imperfections.
