I absolutely adored this book and it made me so excited to start Iron Flame. I haven't started a series for a while that really pulled me into their world like Fourth Wing did. It's so hard to not love all the characters and picture what they're going through in your head. I think that Fourth Wing ended on a wonderful cliff hanger and opening for the next book. I'm curious to see how the author will be able to stretch this story line out over 5 books though. I'm midway through Iron Flame now and am having a hard time conceptualizing their world for 3 more books, if she truly does end up creating a 5-book series. 

My favorite parts of the book were definitely around the enemies to lovers plot line, and that the author didn't hold back in altering the trajectory of the plot. It reminded me a lot of Game of Thrones where no one is truly safe and the story just does whatever it wants. It will have you on the edge of your seat and you'll be eager to start Iron Flame.
