WOW. Yes. That ending was everything. That is the type of cliffhanger I live for if I'm honest lol.

What to expect:
Dragons
Vampires
Academy
Dark romance
Enemies
Kingdom Politics

This book was so fun and I love the dramione-coded vibes. There are so many elements to this plot that I want to know more about and I can't wait for the author to reveal everything.

Medra, Florence, Theo, Visha, Blake, and Kage. I can't wait to see what happens for them next!

I definitely liked this more than the first one (the dragon helped, I love Nyxaris ssooo much). The pacing felt nice, and the plot kept me interested. The ending was really good and I hate to wait for the third book!

Only issue I really have was the sudden shift in Blake being really mean to Medra in the beginning but they do acknowledge it! And the ending was a bit confusing. I hope the third book expands some of the world so it gets explained

Not sure what happened since I loved the first book so much, but this fell flat. The writing felt a lot worse and the characters started to jusy get on my nerves. I felt like not a lot was happening or the plot lines were anticlimactic. Overall very disappointed.
