This half-baked premise pretending to be a full fledged fantasy world and a lot of lusting over the buff sexy guy with a scar on his face who's always looking at our heroine with a lot of sexiness in his eyes and his hands are always folded in front of him. 260 pages of this, just have sex already, that's the only reason people are reading this at this point, right? And please don't tell me you're in for the dragons

So this is a romance novel, "fantasy" is here just to fill pages, there's no cohesive world-building, there's no atmosphere, nothing exists outside of her magic dragon school. Dragons sound exactly like other teenagers, for a 20+ year olds who are dying every other day every character just strangely nonchalant about anything. There's no weight to anything. The heroine and her sexy guy have plot armor..[...]

People who usually read good books saying this is quite good/ good. It's somehow simultaneously very fast-paced and doesn't have time to develop characters and incredibly repetitive and filler.

Marquise Ah... I sense a rant coming. 🤣

Nah, I don't care enough. There're so many rants for this one already. I am confused by the praise by some of my friends though. Hey, maybe it gets better! Currently the plot feels like a prolonged distraction from the imminent sex, so who knows, maybe the sex will be incredible?

Marquise It's a divisive book amongst my friends, some liked it and others think it's utter garbage. In these cases, it's best to go to the negative reviews to see if they mention something you'd not like yourself and not go with the praise only, no matter if that friend usually likes good books. This seems to me an obvious case of a book that is taste-dependent.

For me, the blurb was enough. Not my cuppa nor my kinda story.

nastya The beginning-beginning, was kinda fun, and then it became boring. I don't really get her motivation. I mean we are told it but I call baloney. Somehow being the weakest of all she's strong when the plot needs her to be. At least now she has the best dragon in the realm because of course.
