BEST READ OF THE YEAR OMG Rebecca Yarros my new fav author I can’t believe I waited this long to read Fourth Wing. The plot twists at the end had my jaw on the floor and I loved xaden so muchhh I also loved getting his pov at the end. I’m now in a pit of despair because I won’t ever get to read it for the first time again and im still waiting for the kid who fell first at parapet to come back cuz I loved him sm. also, WHY DID MY BABY LIAM HAVE TO DIE?!?!?! “It’s been my honour” well it hasn’t been mine I want him back please thank yew. I can’t wait to explore more of brennans character in the next book since we only got a taste for him from the Book of Brennan but I can already tell I love him. I’m going to go cry in a corner and pretend Xaden is real now, thanks. 

I loved this book Rebecca, please NEVER stop writing because I’m hooked

Too much violence

I started reading this book because several of my friends loved it. I didn't expect to like it, at least not as much as they did, but holy shit. The ending absolutely murdered me. I love how Violet is a disabled protagonist, and how incredibly badass she is. I love Xaden for being a complex, flawed character, and I am a sucker for complex world building and fantasy. There are some parts that could've done with another round of editing (some continuity errors in scenes) and I could've done without the explicit sex scenes, but I am excited to read more.

This was so much fun and every chapter was more exciting than the next. My only significant complaint was that the modern, sometimes irreverent vernacular felt a little at odds with the high fantasy/magical setting, but I eventually stopped noticing it. I’m psyched to read the next one! It had some stumbling blocks but I can overlook that because it was fun.
