Enjoyable but clunky. feel like we got to a point where this book could have ended before we hit the halfway point, and then it kinda just kept dragging on.

Gorgeous Art and Fluff.
Would love to see more of the world and some of these characters. But, even then these stories are some amazing slices of Magical Fluff.

The book was a nice fun read, I enjoyed the characters for the most part! 
I called the 'twist' near the end early on, so I wasn't too surprised. 
The characters were a little bit whiny at times, and I may have eye rolled at them more than I would have liked to, but for two "teenagers" I can can accept it. 
My one question though, while I know it happens, why do we need to have high schoolers drink so casually? 🤔

Overall it was a nice feel good read, exactly what it was supposed to be.

I haven't read a book as fast as RW&RB in a very long time. I just couldn't stop. Henry and Alex have such great chemistry and the overall cast of characters was very enjoyable. 😁

Well, it's a book.

As another WoW book, it seems a running theme in the early books is that the stories are a bit, slow. The world building was definitely enjoyable at times, especially with the few colorations with the new games expansion. But, it took longer then I expected to get through this instalment because of the dragging moments throughout. It could also just be that I don't have a huge attachment to the old lore of WoW as much as I would the newer stories. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Well, it was a book.

I didn't have high hopes going into the classic Warcraft books, because they are just fleshed out stories of events I've seen already play out in the games. While it was nice to spend more time in the games world, it just felt...meh to me. Was it nice to see the names of some of the characters/their ancestors I know and love already? Sure, but I also just see the same cycle of Horde vs. Alliance storylines that we are still having play out in game now, and I can't help but feel it be stale. I dunno it was nice to see
Thrall
for a sec though.
