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.

My initial thoughts were this story is Divergent but with dragons, then it shifted into a My Hero Academia vibe, but it's also totally it's own story. Loved it.

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.

I loved it so much. It was a great book. It started out slow with the lore dumping but it was definitely worth sticking with after a few days!

Is this a perfectly written book? Nope. Was it a definite five star read? Hell yeah! Love an author who is not afraid to kill people off, and if you combine that danger and tension with magic and dragons and an amazing slow-burn romance enemies-to-lovers story, then I’m all on board!
