Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros

5.0

I read this back in September, but to this day, I still cannot get this book out of my head. This definitely was one of my favorite reads of 2023. It has been a long time since I have sunk my teeth into a good fantasy book. I have always been a sucker for high fantasy and anything with dragons, so I knew this would be up my alley. And oh my did it deliver! I had so much fun and could not put it down. I was incredibly impressed with the worldbuilding aspect. The lore felt incredibly immersive, and I want to learn more about the world and history outside of this book. I also want to shout out the author for writing a main character with a disability. I have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and seeing a badass main character deal with the same issues I do made me feel so seen and validated. I also really appreciate the casual LGBTQ representation. It is refreshing to see LGBTQ relationships in writing without it being made a big deal or without it ending tragically. I am not ashamed to say that I love this book and Iron Flame is already on my nighttable.
