This is cringy edgy shit. Curse G. R. R. Martin for giving authors the great idea of killing characters off with ease, cause now every wanna be edgelord out there kills people left and right for the sake of gasps. Yarros is a horny teenager try hard that doesn’t understand worldbuilding, romance, fantasy and the military. Sometimes I wonder why my stupid brain gave me such powerful insecurities paired with perfectionism, cause without by now I would have been a best selling author of at least one poorly written fantasy trilogy…

It took a really long time to connect with this story, but when I did, my goodness, I got hooked.

Violet is such an amazing character, her growth throughout the entire story is one of the best character arcs I've ever read. The plot is great, full of twists, great friendships, magic and cool dragons. How can you ask for more than that?

Are there any weird little things? Yes. Why the hell do they need to bond with a dragon to write with a pen? What kind of power is that? Why are the sex scenes so…detailed? We get it, sex is good, we don't need to read every thing they feel.

The ending was brilliant! I can't wait to read the second book.
