I ate this up. This gave me Fourth Wing vibes. Sure there were some plot holes but I had a good time reading this.

I have read worse books in terms of both writing, plot, story and themes, but I have read fewer books that are less worth reading as a whole.

There is nothing here you can't predict from page one, and there is less than zero interest in anything but "plot" and "world building".

There is a little sex, and it's not terribly written at all, but it's also not enough to justify the rest of the book existing.

This story had potential but… unfortunately it read like it was written for wattpad
adventurous dark fast-paced

Super addictive. Loved the worldbuilding and the magic system, and I’m always here for a dark academy vibe with dragons and vampires. Medra was a badass, though I did catch myself wondering why she hated the vampires that much. Honestly, I vibed with Medra’s mom too. The audiobook for this one is not it though; hoping for different narrators when the next book’s audio comes out.
