Definitely a fun and engaging read, but prepare for a deluge of cringe moments. Also smut.

Iron Flame is the second book in the Empyrean series. The first book, Fourth Wing follows Violet who has trained all her life to be a scribe. But when her mother demands she joins the war college to be a dragon rider, she finds herself thrown into a challenging situation. With her chronic illness and lack of strength, she finds herself having to fight to prove herself and live to become a dragon rider.
The way the ending of this book had me wanting to scream in the car when I listened to it. I know there was a lot of mixed reviews of this book but I absolutely loved it so much. I really loved seeing how Violet's realtionship with her fellow cadets and her relationship with Xaden developed. After the events of the last book I was so interested to see how this was going to develop. I thought that Rebecca Yarros did push a lot into this book but I found that it was pretty easy to follow. It makes me interested to see what the other books will have in store.
I found this to be a satisfying sequel to a book that I really loved. I am so interested to see what is going to happen in the next book.
