3.5
The story follows Violet, daughter of the infamous General Sorrengail, who is forced by her mother to become a dragon rider (and not as she intended a scribe like her father). Forced to go through the cruel and deadly school for dragon riders, Violet's life gets a lot more difficult. But her quick wit and empathy help her make some good friends who'll stand by her side (and she may even make friends she had not expected).
I liked the fact that Violet was not the typical heroin who was caught between two men - she was quite capable of deciding that one of them would suffocate her (despite how much he might like her). Although she could be somewhat annoying in how often she repeated how hot a certain someone was. There was also one scene towards the end where I was expecting a catastrophe, but Violet surprised me again by remaining level-headed (as much as was possible in this situation).
The end throws a curve ball at you and there are SO MANY questions left unanswered. But most of all I would like to know what happened to the rest of Fourth Wing!
