Really enjoyed this book. It is incresibly easy to love Jebi and root for them, and it's refreshing to have a tale of rebellion through the eyes of an artist who really does not stomach the violence well. I wish we'd had more Arazi cause I ADORE the dragon, and the moment it really enters the story is the moment it flipped from good to excellent for me. Also loved the complicated siblings dynamic between Jebi and their sister. This book had a lot for me in it.
