Consider An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir.
“Starts as an adrenaline-driven YA fantasy that flips between two young protagonists caught under an oppressive military regime. Its useful part is momentum: vivid set pieces, urgent stakes, and a relationship arc that propels the plot. Limitation: the book leans heavily on emotional intensity and occasionally recycles the same inner-conflict beats, so scenes of violence and blunt moral dilemmas can feel relentless. Best treated as a bingeable, feel-every-scene read rather than a subtle, slow-burn character study.”
