Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros

I am obsessed with this book!



Fourth Wing is the first book in the Empyrean series, a highly addictive fantasy romance. It follows Violet Sorrengail, whose fearsome mother is the emperor of Navarre army.

I'm putting it out there... Our FMC, Violet Sorrengail is the best protagonist I have read this year. Trained to join the Scribes quadrant, Violet *or Violence ;)* is thrust instead into an elite war college for dragon riders where it is kill or be killed. Our underdog heroine gives us a story of perseverance and strength.

"I will not die today".



I absolutely loved Violet's character development, her developing faith in herself and her belief that not all strength is physical.

I also really enjoyed Violet's different relationships with her sister Mira, her friends, her amazing dragons and of course our favourite, Xaden *heart eyes*. The secondary characters were great additions to the book and so well written. Rebecca Yarros has built an easily consumable but fully immersive world in this book and I was along for the ride.

Dragons, a strong female lead, romance, enemies to lovers AND plot twists - I promise you will adore this.
