I couldn't have seen anything in this book coming. The twist and turns were surprising and the story was rich with intrigue. I can't wait for Yarros to finish off this story in the next few books!

I was lucky to snag this book when it was all but impossible to find in stores anywhere, and I can’t believe I waited weeks to read it! This story enraptured me. Violet was incredibly easy to like and root for the whole way. I’ll never get over how cool the dragons are. 

I can’t wait to be back at Navarre soon!

It was 3 stars for me most of the way through, until the ending. I know I am an outlier on this book.  It did not grab me like it did for most everyone else.  It felt more YA than adult to me.  I often forgot the characters were in their 20s and thought they were teens.  I also thought it was way too long.  However I loved the dragons and the ending hooked me.  I will most likely be on the bandwagon in November reading the seco

This book was entertaining, I’ll give it that. But I do not, on any level, understand the popularity and hype for it. 

Fourth Wing is fine. It’s not amazing, it’s not bad, it’s fine. Like, THIS is sold out everywhere?? 

The modern speak in a fantastical story really took me out. I don’t care that there is an in-universe explanation for it. It was awful. The FMC is try hard sassy and over dramatic. Fortunately, she is a relatively intelligent character, which I find rare in these types of books. 

The entire concept of the plot and world is fascinating. I just wish the romance and high school drama weren’t shoehorned in. The battle and action scenes were great. I really found myself invested in this world.

I genuinely cannot remember the MMC’s name. The romance covered too many popular Booktok tropes for it to feel natural. 

I would die for the dragons.
