Getting into it!

Absolutely love so far

This book is taking forever to read lol but it’s good!!
I’m definitely thinking the war/ the conflict between the superior leadership and the cadets is a metaphor for climate change where they talk abt “saving your daughter versus future generations”

XADEN AND VIOLET KISSED!!!😍😍😍😍 they can feel when their dragons have sex…😅😀
I love the little book excerpts at the beginning of every chapter it gives a taste of what will happen

Finals are over, back on my reading grind?

Already I like better than the last book for this class

I likeeeee

Very data-heavy so sometimes difficult to read, but I’m learning so much. Do I enjoy reading it? No. Am I really interested in the topic and have a lot of thoughts while reading? Yes. So take that as you will

Btw this is for my education inequality seminar

Good so far, super interesting.

Enjoying my little notes from my friend (ifykyk)

“The pulling of a trigger was in the end a rote, mechanical movement— anyone could be taught it. The difficult thing, the necessary thing, was to first kill off the instinct not to pull it.

For years these soldiers have been taught to wield hammers, only to come to the island and find not nails, but glass.”

The writing of this book is beautiful!

I am very intrigued by this book. The setting is all encompassing and immersive. The authors
leaves gaps in descriptions so that I can feel and notice things without them being clearly stated, which is actually wonderful and adds to the mystery. One of the characters, Leo, is not given and physical descriptions at all, which makes him so mysterious yet enticing.
