I don’t like smut, I don’t like romance, I rarely like fantasy, and I really don’t like romantasy so take this all with a grain of salt

So many thoughts. Where do I start?

I don’t know man. I don’t think this author is a particularly good writer
This is like Divergent with dragons
This is like The Poppy War but horny and worse
They did WHAT to an armoire?
If I ever hear the phrase “his jaw ticks” or “she threw over her shoulder” again I’m rioting
guys her hair is special and this is an important feature!!
They are SO HORNY for each other good lord
RIP Liam you were the best of us
Why doesn’t she just get with Rhi? She’s the best
At least there are queer people

Is this book good? No. Do I have a million complaints? Yes. Will I be reading the rest of the series? Yes. The audiobook passes the time on my runs and it’s fun talking to people about this hot mess express of a book. It’s just nice to be involved

adventurous emotional tense

I've been in a reading slump for a few months. I really didn't go into this expecting to get invested because I don't particularly trust booktok hype.

I had so much fun with this.
It's Divergent with Dragons mixed with the love triangle from the Hunger Games (if Katniss and Peeta had a much more antagonistic relationship and Peeta was overall much more dangerous and mysterious). Lots of characters, lots of death, lots of lusty yearning.

I wish that Rebecca Yarros hadn't used slang terminology and imperial measurements. It even struck me as odd that they have the same month names as us. However, I could definitely look past it because of how fast paced the rest of the book is. You get sucked in so it's hard to stay distracted by little, unimportant details.

BEST READ OF THE YEAR OMG Rebecca Yarros my new fav author I can’t believe I waited this long to read Fourth Wing. The plot twists at the end had my jaw on the floor and I loved xaden so muchhh I also loved getting his pov at the end. I’m now in a pit of despair because I won’t ever get to read it for the first time again and im still waiting for the kid who fell first at parapet to come back cuz I loved him sm. also, WHY DID MY BABY LIAM HAVE TO DIE?!?!?! “It’s been my honour” well it hasn’t been mine I want him back please thank yew. I can’t wait to explore more of brennans character in the next book since we only got a taste for him from the Book of Brennan but I can already tell I love him. I’m going to go cry in a corner and pretend Xaden is real now, thanks.

I loved this book Rebecca, please NEVER stop writing because I’m hooked
