This is a reread for me.

I am giving this 4 stars even though I loved it. I did find some faults. The biggest complaint I have is that the miscommunication is overwhelming in this book. It also goes on and on. I feel like in the first half of the book, it is on repeat how Violet and Xaden aren’t communicating with each other and are perpetually angry.

The ending is making me happy that I get the next book tomorrow.

slow-paced

i’m gonna be honest here and say that this was not quite as good as fourth wing. don’t get me wrong… this book was very good, however, it also tended to drag on and i did find myself bored at times throughout this book.

i feel as though not much of consequence actually happened for a 623 page book, which is a little irritating. part one was especially slow and just frustrating in general to read. part two was most definitely better. this book just needs a little shortening.

there were some beautiful quotes about love in this book and i did highly enjoy that, but something just felt a little lackluster compared to the previous book.

all that being said, it was an enjoyable read but it just took me longer to finish than most books of the same length. that, in itself, tells me that there’s definitely something left to be desired. i will be reading onyx storm, but i am in no rush to do so.

Don't read this book before reading Fourth Wing, you'll miss some major plot points.

Not sure how I feel about the cliffhanger of this book. It feels strange and hopeless. There was less conspiracy intrigue and more fighting amongst the groups, including Xaden & Violet. The lovers quarrels were taxing for me after a while even if it was understandable arguments.

I do like the lore building in this book and I'd like to see more of it now that the scribes are fully involved and the secret is out about the wyverns and venin.
