Mini Review:
I have been on a dragon kick this year and Makiia Lucier's Dragonfruit may be the most beautifully written one of them so far. This lushly crafted Pacific Islander-inspired YA Romantasy had dragons, pirates, princes, and a unique soft magic system that I enjoyed immensely. I was pulled to Hannalei and her compassion despite everything and there wasn't a moment I was not rooting for her and Prince Sam. The romance part of this romance was lacking, but I still had the best time delving into mythology I might not have otherwise learned about.
full review: coming soon
