According to the description, this book has a few tropes that I'd enjoy and I do like the this wonderfully magical world with lots of fascinating creatures including a pegasus called Snow. The magic system was also quite interesting and there was a magical school with the usual drama. There was a castle and a handsome prince and A BALL! So many things to love BUT...

There was one point where the protagonist actually thought that she's afraid her crush will think her a spoiled brat and from that point on, each time she decided on something silly or contrary or whatever, I be like, "SPOILED BRAT" 👈🙄 And this crush followed right after the earlier crush from which she faced humiliation. I wonder if I'd be so sceptical and annoyed if I read this 20 years ago... so unfortunately, I just don't get along with this MC.

FYI no actual dragons in this book despite being tagged dragons though it could be due to the word "Firedrakes" in title. Who knows, dragon might show in sequel but meh
