This follow-up to "Fourth Wing" did not disappoint. It continued with non-stop action, twists and turns, and romance to make for terrific storytelling. It'll be hard to wait another year for the next book.

I hated that ending (but in the best way), and now I’m mad at Rebecca Yarros. She better give us a better resolution in book 3.

If Rebecca doesn’t give us a cure for Xaden being venin in book 3, I’ll never read one of her books ever again. I’m so angry at last few pages of this book!

Really love this series so far and I’m super hyped for the next one in December! 

Apparently a lot of people are hating on it??? I don’t know man, i still love it. Is some of the dialogue a smidge cringey? Yes. Do I absolutely love reading cringe? Of course I do cause it makes me GIGGLE! I do know it’s not for everyone, but I lived for it. 

Overall, I thought the story in Iron Flame was super fun and the world building for the series as a whole is great. The battles scenes are spectacular (somehow in Iron Flame I found them even better than the last book???? And I thought the final battle in Fourth Wing was chefs kiss) and the TENSION! YEESH! So much tension going on at all times! 

The ending… ugh. 

Wowee man, overall this book was super stressful in a really really good way. Dragons are cool. 😎
