So Let Them Burn by Kamilah Cole

Sisters with special powers uncover the secrets of the political and religious war they’ve been dragged into.

Faron is powerful and celebrated, revered by her people and chosen by the gods. But on the inside she’s rebellious, selfish and feels trapped in a role she didn’t choose. Elara would do anything to protect her little sister, Faron, but she has a burning desire to prove herself every bit as useful to her country and every bit as worthy.

Both sisters are traumatised by the war they fought and won when they were just twelve and thirteen years old. Now, five years later, their peacetime is under threat and their sisterly bound is put to the test.

“Being forced to learn the language of your oppressors is an oppression of the mind.”
