Wow. This one is hurtful. The cliff hanger… are we sure Rebecca Yarros didn’t write this? Cause this is just like OS… get me hooked and *boom* book finished. I need book 2 like NOW!! I’m not giving it 5 stars cause I’m salty it’s over… but this was a good one to dive back into the fantasy realm

Highly Recommend!

I started this book with high expectations, and I have to say, it did not disappoint. From the very beginning it pulls you in with a plot that seems to whisper “Take my hand,” and before you know it you're RUNNING. I was all about the action! This book is so engaging that I didn’t feel the urge to constantly check the percent or page number I was at. It just held my attention from start to finish.

We have multiple POV’s with Sadie being our MFC. Sadie herself is sassy and witty. She’s fierce despite all she has been through, and I loved her attitude.

That said, I’ll mention a small caveat: I wish there was a bit more depth when it comes to the magic system because it seems very interesting, especially the bond and interactions between dragons and their riders. I think exploring that further could add even more richness to the story, but there’s always a chance book 2 will shed more light on this. Regardless, it’s plenty captivating as is. This is my reason for giving 4 stars, but I can easily see book 2 being a 5 star read for me.

Now.. what’s the deal with Jonas? What does it all mean? I need to know more about that immediately, and don’t even get me started on the ending! It had me kicking and screaming for the next book. I literally put my hand out and said, “NOOO!” Sadie’s quick flip caught me off guard, but I also understand she has been through a lot and doubt is probably an easy to seed plant when you feel like you can only rely on yourself.

Overall, I really enjoyed this story and can’t wait to see where it goes next! Definitely recommend picking this up. 😊

I really had no idea what I was getting into opening the first page of this book, but I am so glad I picked it up! Sadie is the ultimate FMC. Sure, she's got some preeeeetty heavy baggage, but it doesn't stop her from being an absolute bad*ss. I loved the take on mates and love, as it was completely unique to what I'm used to in fantasy. The MMC was so much more realistic than I expected, allowing Sadie to take her time and do her own thing. I spent most of the book making guesses and not being correct (or at least not yet!) so I appreciated staying intrigued the entire time. I devoured this whole book in just a couple of hours, but I left myself disappointed because now I have to wait on book two because I didn't realize I'd be so mad about a cliffhanger!

Cliffhanger

The book was good but definitely left me wanting more at the end!! The two lead characters are complex and you are always learning more about them.
