A Dragonbird in the Fern by Laura Rueckert
4.0
real rating 4.5
This book captured me from chapter one and I read it in one day. It was such a lovely book and a bit unexpected, to be honest.
I loved the plot, the characters, the world-building. Ah! I just wish there was more of it!
It was very well-written and it had such a good plot twist that I did not see coming! And I absolutely loved the characters especially Jiara and Raffar. At first, I was unsure about Jiara because I'm a bit tired of the "I'm not like the other girls" trope but I LOVED HER! She's so mature. Her way of thinking is so good and very human. I loved how the author portrayed her struggles with learning a new language and with dyslexia. And Raffar is the cutest ever!
I loved the romance too. Even though it wasn't romance-focused I'm very happy with how the romance unfolded. I'd have loved to see more of them though, especially in the end. And also a Raffar POV would have been amazing!
In summary, it was a great book! It helped to get out of a reading slump! so, thank you!
