Utterly Addictive and Unforgettable
Rebecca Yarros’s Fourth Wing is the kind of book that reminds you why you fell in love with reading in the first place. It’s electric, emotional, and unputdownable—the rare fantasy novel that makes you laugh one minute, cry the next, and clutch the pages like your heart depends on it.
Why it soars above the rest:
Characters you can’t stop rooting for.
Violet is an unforgettable heroine—fierce, vulnerable, and wickedly funny. Her determination to survive the brutal trials of Basgiath War College while never losing her spark makes her instantly endearing. And Xaden? He’s the kind of brooding, complex character who steals both scenes and hearts. Their banter is sharp, playful, and often laugh-out-loud hilarious.
Emotional depth.
Beyond the humor, Yarros doesn’t shy away from heartbreak. There are scenes that hit with such raw power they leave you in tears—moments of loss, resilience, and hard-won triumph that linger long after you close the book.
Dragons with personality.
The dragons are more than majestic beasts; they’re characters in their own right—witty, intimidating, and often surprisingly funny. Their bond with riders is both thrilling and deeply moving.
Relentless pacing. From deadly challenges to jaw-dropping twists, the story keeps you on edge. Yet in between the battles and betrayals, Yarros gives us quieter, heartfelt moments that make the intensity all the more impactful.
A perfect blend of heart and humor. This book had me grinning and snorting at the banter one chapter, then wiping away tears the next. Few novels manage to balance levity and gravity so seamlessly.
Final Thoughts:
Fourth Wing isn’t just a book—it’s an experience. It’s laughter bubbling up during moments of camaraderie, it’s heartbreak that squeezes your chest, it’s the thrill of dragons soaring through the skies, and it’s the ache of characters you don’t want to let go of. Rebecca Yarros has created something extraordinary here: a fantasy novel with the emotional resonance of the best love stories and the heart-racing tension of the fiercest adventures.
This isn’t just five stars—it’s five stars plus. A masterpiece of fantasy that I’ll be recommending to anyone who wants a story that makes them feel everything.

I only wish I would've read it sooner.
I love that the main character acknowledged her being small but in a matter of fact way and works to become stronger.
Also such a sad death towards the end 😢

A very captivating fantasy book about dragon riders. We follow Violet as she discovers who she truly is and what her fate holds. THE PLOT TWIST AT THE END ALSO?!
