Rebecca Yarros really sat down and wrote a book which includes every possible trope ever. Manic pixie dream girl, not like the other girls, i’m no longer attracted to my best friend but i am attracted to the guy who wants to kill me. You’ll find all these and more. Also the ending is just the hunger games: catching fire.

I'd seen the hype for this book and finally got around to reading it.  I loved it and can't wait to read the second book, which is already out.  If you liked the Harry Potter Series, Hunger Games, etc., this is an adult version of the genre.  The sex scenes are graphic - no innuendo here!

Doesn't live up to the hype but it is a cute,  simple read for something that is military school for teens with dragons. The dragons are neat.
