Couldn't put it down. There are definitely similarities to other series out there, but I enjoyed the writing style and plot development immensely.

My initial thoughts were this story is Divergent but with dragons, then it shifted into a My Hero Academia vibe, but it's also totally it's own story. Loved it.

Reads like a YA novel with spicy scenes.  I'm a fan of YA dystopia so it was fine with me but more avid fantasy readers might find it distracting or unnecessary.  Some of the book contained jargon or phrases that seem out of place in a fantasy world that took me out of the story.  Is this a future word of Earth, past, or somewhere else?  All in all it's a fast paced adventure romance that I enjoyed & will definitely read sequels.

Enemies-to-lovers, lovable characters, magical abilities, DRAGONS. What more could a guy ask for? This book was amazing. Most of the characters were so easy to love and the ones that weren't were designed to be hated. The side characters didn't feel cheap, it was easy to see their personalities shine through the text. The MC had a fun personality, she'd often make me smile or laugh. 

The story itself was interesting. I found myself excited to find out more details as the plot unraveled. It was good, there were times when I HAD to read another chapter before returning to regular life. I'm definitely going to read the next book.

Okay wow…this book starts off giving me strong divergent meets Harry Potter meets GOT fanfiction. Then develops some of its own flavor as the action heats up (!!!) and we get a sense for the individuality of the characters. But I was totally lost with some of the

fantasy characters that get written into the dragon battle in the later half of the book, it’s like impossible to follow. It’s like a fight scene with fairytale lore being thrown at you instead of shown. I also felt like writing one chapter from Xadens pov at the end left a lot to be desired

I look forward to reading the next book.
