So this wasn't exactly what I was expecting.
It had a strong start and I was very invested in the world of magic and dragons.
But unfortunately for me it just flopped a bit when it came to the "memory loss" trope and the lack of dragons.
Dragons felt like an afterthought to the story and plot.
It also got to a point where I wasn't sure where this was going? And Raeve was extremely unlikable throughout.
I also found nothing surprised me, I figured it out before the reveal happened which was a shame.
I did enjoy the world building and think it has potential but unfortunately it just wasn't as good as other reads.
Especially Fourth Wing.
