Slow to start, but once Maren really gets into her quest, the book picks up and stays that way until the end.
I love the internal struggle with love vs friendship.
Honestly, who doesn’t love dragons?

I really enjoyed this book. It's very fast paced and I couldn't put it down. It is refreshingly unpredictable. The main character grows so much and I can't wait for the sequel. Also; dragons.

Sapphic romance and dragons with a protagonist who does not feel she can do the thing. Some of story can be standard by fantasy standards, but I can not wait for the sequel.
I received an ecopy of this through netgalley; however, all opinions are my own.

Maren and Kaia live in the mountainous outer reaches of the Zefed. When the emperor's Seers come to their village, Maren and Kaia are forcibly parted. In order to get Kaia back, Maren must start a journey that helps reestablish the bond between the humans who first settled the mountains and the dragons that lived there. There are prophecies, dragons, soldiers, hidden identity, and a lot of action. I believe it will have a sequel. The book releases at the end of July. I will be pre-ordering the Kindle and Audible versions.

If I were younger, I would’ve definitely loved this book. I still do, for it’s representation of wlw, bisexual, and non-binary characters. Unfortunately, there’s just too much plot armor going on here. I’m glad the main character recognizes how foolhardy her “plans” are, but I can’t help but dislike the recurring theme of her rushing into things, spurred by love, and calling it bravery. Also the fact that she’s saved by Sev a few times, which falls under the annoying White Knight trope. Still, I will read the second book and appreciate it as a relaxing read. Also, I need to make sure that her uncle is okay, especially after he risked his life to speak for her despite being in bad terms with her father.
