I think the book did a good job letting you figure things just before the character does. So you feel smart, but also don’t feel frustrated at the character for being slow to figure things out.
And of course, who doesn’t love dragons?

TLDR: Overall, kept my attention, and I found the pacing to be done well. If you can’t handle the internal monologue of a somewhat rebellious lovestruck high schooler (I know that’s not the age of the characters but it is how it reads) or relatively predictable but intriguing enough plot, this book isn’t for you. Even you want an easy read to take you out of your own head and world for a while, and you can take the aforementioned characteristics in stride, then give it a shot.

My favorite parts of the book were definitely around the enemies to lovers plot line, and that the author didn't hold back in altering the trajectory of the plot. It reminded me a lot of Game of Thrones where no one is truly safe and the story just does whatever it wants. It will have you on the edge of your seat and you'll be eager to start Iron Flame.
