“A dragon without its rider is a tragedy.
A rider without their dragon is dead.” 

I started this book because I friend of mine wanted to start reading again and didn't know what to read. And because this was something that was recommended to her, we decided to do a buddy read. However, not gonna lie, I had a lot of doubts about this one. This book gets a lot of hype and I tend to have a very 50/50 reaction to hyped books: I either love them or hate them. 

Well, take this review with a grain of salt (because I'm still riding the fumes - that's why I'm not going to give 5 stars to this book) but I f****** love this book! I loved every single second of it. The drama, the action, the romance, everything has its time and blends together to make a really good story! The characters are well written and structured! 

I'm excited to start the second book, and really recommend this series!!!

Wow…. Fourth Wing definitely lives up to its hype. I absolutely loved this book. It’s so hard to find good dragon books where the dragons aren’t the enemy. Freaking LOVE Violet, and her love interest.

My only disappointment and it’s not really that disappointing. But it’s the fact that I basically guessed what was gonna happen. But that didn’t take away from how good the story was.

Flew through this book every time I picked it up, and loved every moment of this ride. Cannot wait for book 2!!!!!

Although the book is paced in a way that could be engaging, I found it re-used some of the worst tropes from other dragon rider books in a way that they were criticized for in the past and didn’t do anything new. I was nearly a did not finish because i couldn’t connect with the story, but people told me it got better. I am not sure if it did get better, it just got more!
