Just wasn't in the mood for it; also it didn't really make any sense for me at the time. I'll try it again in June :).
I thought this book was absolutely amazing. Quite honestly one of the best books I've read in a long time. The flap didn't make the story sound terribly interesting, well at least not to me, but I decided to give it a try. My expectations were way beyond surpassed. This book has some of the most beautiful writing in any Young Adult book I've ever read. The characters are interesting, the description is phenomenal, and the world building is incredible. Now I like me a good love story, but this was beyond good. The love between the characters was subtle at first but it still remained interesting and it wasn't overdone. The story wasn't completely about love which I thought was a nice change of pace. I can't wait to read the sequel!!!!!

very political and engaged
interesting plot that went a little sideways at the endgownlong has Imlann been hiding at court? lime forever
still don't get why Josef hates half dragons so much
wanted to love Kiggs and Seraphina so bad but I just didn't feel the chemistry
honestly didn't like most of the characters, especially the dragons and I really don't see a way to peace
why is seraphina telepathic when this is not a normal dragon ability? i don't get it

I wanted to like it more but I just didn't? I liked Seraphina the character and I enjoyed how the dragons were set up as so different mentally than humans. I also liked her familial relationships. But for some reason I just couldn't get into it that much? It took some coaxing for me to keep reading it. And when I finished it, it didn't feel satisfying (yes, I am aware it's a duology).
So I was bad and kinda looked up a few spoilers for the second book and I think I'm happy just keeping it here, just having read the first book and pretend the story stops here.

Graphic: Self harm, Xenophobia
This book immediately captivates the reader and will not let go. I have now read this book twice, and I wasn't bored the second time because I knew what was going to happen, I was at the edge of my seat and anxiously awaiting the characters' fates. The first time I read this was so long ago, so I barely remembered what happened. Either way, it is definetly a book that can be read twice.
Seraphina is a fantasy book, filled with dragons and royalty, but it is not the typical go slay a dragon book. The dragons and humans signed a peace treaty, and have been living in harmony for almost forty years. The dragons have the ability to change into humans, but wear a bell to mark their true selves. These are very interesting dragons, and Rachel Hartman did an excellent job of creating them and their relationships with humans. This is an amazing book, and I would recommend it to anybody, not just those who enjoy fantasy. There is danger, adventure, scandals, plots, romance, and tense relationships throughout the book. The ending is very satisfying, as it leaves the reader wanting more. Thank goodness the sequel is out!
