Rated YA-MA discussion

Yes, Firelight was a little bit heavy on the Romeo and Juliet aspect, but I kind of liked the "dragon hunter falls for the dragon" thing. There were a couple of lines in the book that made me cringe with cheesiness, but I thought it was a cute first book. Nothing exceptional, but good to pass the time. I have Vanish but haven't gotten around to reading it yet.

i want to read these, I haven't got the chance yet. I hear the first one is good but haven't met anyone who has read the second yet.

I am interested in this book. I like the dragon aspect, but all I've really heard is bad things. And if not bad reviews that say it was just okay. So I am still on the fence with this one.

I heard that the series goes downhill, so I'd never gotten around to reading past book 1.

This reminds me that I gotta clean out old series again after the first of the year!

Ehh that's actually disappointing. I'll probably still attempt it, my curiosity always gets the best of me.

I am reading the final book now. I love the concept of this series. It is unique and extremely interesting. There are all different kinds of Draki's (Onyx, Earth, etc.). I like that the colors of the Draki's correspond to their powers. I actually think the main character's (Jacinda) power is the most boring of the bunch and she has a rare power. She is a fire breather. I think of a normal Dragon when I think of her.

When I picture a Draki I often find myself picturing Mystique from X-Men with wings! The way the author describes the Draki's is similar....at least in my opinion.

Overall the books aren't bad. I find that the characters lack depth and I have a hard time connecting with them. But I'm not sad I picked this series up. Hopefully other people in this group give it a shot!

Soon I'll finish reading the third book.

There is also an additional book, I'm excited to read it too.

Reading from AZ's point of view would be pretty interesting. I didn't know about this one! Now I have to check it out.
