I’m obsessed with this series but this one wasn’t my favorite. It somehow felt rushed while simultaneously barely moving the story forward.

But I’m also in my 30s impatiently waiting for the rest of this young adult series, because I can’t get enough.

I’m just so bummed I have to wait another year for more. I definitely recommend reading the spin-offs (0.5 and 1.5) if you haven’t yet!

Twists and turns, steamy romance, dragons and magical showdowns! This was a satisfying, pulse-pounding read. I couldn’t put it down!

These books are truly addicting. Though I do not think this one was written as well or was as stand-alone as the prior 2.
