I did like this book, the plot was more interesting than fourth wing, as I enjoyed the development of other characters in this book. There was still a number of interactions between Violet and Xaden which had me giggling and swinging my feet and I love, love, love the dragons.
The biggest issue I had with this book though? It was too flipping long. I feel like with some editing and concessions this book could’ve easy been about 500-600 pages and still covered everything. The bit in the middle especially seemed to drag forever and was a bit of a slog to get through, in my opinion.
That being said, I did enjoy this book and look forward to reading the third book, but apparently this is meant to be a 5 book series and I’m confused about how much Yarros can drag this plot line before we’re just reading the same story over and over.
