A Pseudo Tandem Reading Guide for From Blood and Ash & A Soul of Ash and Blood by Jennifer L. Armentrout

While From Blood and Ash and A Soul of Ash and Blood are essentially the same story but told from different POV, I would not recommend reading them in tandem since you will get major spoilers for the rest of the series if you read A Soul of Ash and Blood at the same time.

So, I would more recommend this if you've already read the series and want to re-experience the first book from both sides as you read A Soul of Ash and Blood.…
