A review by megansoetaert
The Battle Drum by Saara El-Arifi

tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.5

i love you Hassa!!!!! Hassa #1 fan over here!!! 

also i’m suchhhh an Anoor hater like GIRL…. get it together i’m over it

anyway this is definitely a middle book, you need the context of the first book to understand anything but i don’t care! i looove worldbuilding and i loved getting to know more about the world outside of the warden’s empire. i can’t wait for the last book 😭😭
