I am unwell. My emotions are a jumbled mess and I don’t think I’ve sobbed quite that hard over a book since I read the end of A Court of Wings and Ruin. You know what you did Rebecca for that .25 deduction.

Couldn't put it down. There are definitely similarities to other series out there, but I enjoyed the writing style and plot development immensely.

Reads like a YA novel with spicy scenes.  I'm a fan of YA dystopia so it was fine with me but more avid fantasy readers might find it distracting or unnecessary.  Some of the book contained jargon or phrases that seem out of place in a fantasy world that took me out of the story.  Is this a future word of Earth, past, or somewhere else?  All in all it's a fast paced adventure romance that I enjoyed & will definitely read sequels.

It took a really long time to connect with this story, but when I did, my goodness, I got hooked.

Violet is such an amazing character, her growth throughout the entire story is one of the best character arcs I've ever read. The plot is great, full of twists, great friendships, magic and cool dragons. How can you ask for more than that?

Are there any weird little things? Yes. Why the hell do they need to bond with a dragon to write with a pen? What kind of power is that? Why are the sex scenes so…detailed? We get it, sex is good, we don't need to read every thing they feel.

The ending was brilliant! I can't wait to read the second book.
