Iron Flame by Rebecca Yarros

4.0

So while I still devoured this book, I started to have more issues with it than I did with Fourth Wing. Yarros definitely has elements she really loves to include (like why does there always have to be someone in Basgiath trying to literally ruin/destroy Violet?? Is this a message about how the military is inherently corrupt? Or is it a character archetype she enjoys??) Also, I love a strong cast of supporting characters, but there are times when I feel like there's not that strong development. 
Also - I absolutely wanted to shake both Violet and Xaden, and the "you have to tell me everything, I can't trust you" just bugged me so much and I just wanted it to end.
