licileopard 's review for:
Fourth Wing
by Rebecca Yarros
I was going to rate 3 but I've brought it up to 4.
It was my first time listening to a full audio book, which I will not be doing again. The person did a fantastic job but not my cuppa. So incase that affects how I feel about this I'm bumping it up a star.
Honestly. It fell flat. It didn't feel like a good fantasy and it didn't feel like a fantasy romance (which means I'll let them be more lack with the fantasy side of it).
Fantasy side:
The world was interesting but I never felt fully in it. The legends that became relevant etc felt unexplored. There was no distinct culture.
Hopefully where it's left off the next book will be able to fill that in more.
The bond and details with the dragons etc just happened. There was no building up of friendship, no development of the bond and was just skipped over.
The romance side:
Enemies to lovers? She explained why they would be enemies but I never felt any threat or dislike from him. He was just there.
And I guess slight spoiler?
And the ending when he tells her why certain things weren't disclosed. In my opinion completely justified as the thing he was worried about her friend doing WAS PROVEN TO HAVE HAPPENED.
It's a meh. Which is a shame I like dragons.
