5.0

I devoured this book, like cover to cover couldn't put it down, devoured it. Was it as good as Fourth Wing? Maybe not... The ending still has me in all sorts of wtf angst (though I'm not sure I liked this twist quite as much). But it was good. I ache for these characters, I dream of dragons and the tension... It's glorious.

I'm not sure how she'll top this - but I'll be first in line to buy #3.

This was the absolute biggest mash potato boom for me. I knew I'd love it, and I genuinely did, it just took me so long to actually get round to reading it!
