The first third was great. I was super interested in the world, the characters, and the plot being built. That all fell apart in the second third when we took a break from doing any actual plot/worldbuilding and tossed in a bunch of smut and insta-love. Back into some plot for the final third but it was incredibly irritating to watch the over the top instalove romance and the now over-powered protagonist. 

Basically a bunch of popular YA tropes with dragons tossed in for vibes. Probably good for people who like Sarah J Maas or Twilight but otherwise, not worth the read.
