i feel like all the criticisms have already been said so here's my sparknotes:
- violet is so op ππ first time i wished for a chosen one bc why is she getting all this power
- least safe school since hogwarts, i though u wanted dragon riders??
- ik i just argued the opposite for "powerless" but sorry victoria aveyard called she wants her mc back
nevertheless, even as i thought i was gonna be able to be pretentious and hate this, i loved it!
violet is such a good mc and as someone who's also chronically ill, i loved that she was, too! she's such a sweetheart (at least at first π€) and i could really feel for her!
xaden...the man u are. shadow daddy. morally grey. hot. has daggers. kills people for violet. what more could u want???
the worldbuilding is so obvious but ik yarros was trying to be sly π gotta appreciate the effort and also it made me grin so
the plot isn't revolutionary (pun intended) but honestly i'm mainly here for xaden (so is violet)
didn't predict the ending!! so excited!!!

But is this entertaining? YES.
It hits all the beats of a fun YA and I thoroughly enjoyed myself reading it.
Sometimes, you don't need a literary masterpiece. You just need dragons.

Author's note at the beginning states the following: "Fourth Wing is a nonstop-thrilling adventure fantasy set in the brutal and competitive world of a military college for dragon riders, which includes elements regarding war, battle, hand-to-hand combat, perilous situations, blood, intense violence, brutal injuries, death, poisoning, graphic language, and sexual activities that are shown on the page. Readers who may be sensitive to these elements, please take note, and prepare to enter Basgiath War College. . ."
