Book Review: Be by Ellie Lieberman

     Ari has had to fight for every moment of her life. Her father taught hard lessons after the death of her mother and while her brothers made life bearable she left when she could. Still, something always brought her home when Father wasn't there. Eventually. Although the time had created a distance between herself and her brothers they never refused to take her in. Nor the person she took under her care, Henry. Henry had a secret of his own and would stop at nothing to get to the kingdom his mother was from. With the loss of his brother the family residing there was all he had left that he cared about. His father, however, had other ideas and his guards will stop at nothing to see him brought home. 

    I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review. Perspectives in this book jump from character to character so we can better see their point of view. Henry shows us that hate and pain can fall on anyone, even a noble while Ari shows us that no matter how little you have there is still time to help others. 

    I enjoyed this story as our characters fought to be themselves. Free of the burdens of their pasts. No sacrifice is too big as we see within these pages, although I wish the end sacrifice hadn't happened. You'll see what I mean. It sucks. Every other point in the book is filled with action, budding romance, and genuine human connections. 

    The book was well written and I look forward to more books from this author in the future. Hopefully with a little less trauma. Side note: I really hope the twin is okay.
