Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros

5.0

This book was on a whole other level. I really had to get into it for the first few chapters but once I did I couldn't put it down. We follow Violet who gets forced into the Riders' Quadrant by her mother, when she actually wants to be a scribe. She's small and breaks easily- how is she going to ride dragons and fight in the war, if she even survives the first year...
The worldbuilding was amazing! I lOVE Tairn, he's such a sassy ass dad figure and all his dialogue cracked me up xD Andarna is such a golden (iykyk) retriever I love her.The political intrigue was super well done. I had a feeling certain stuff was going to happen but I also kept being surprised. I really wonder what's going down in book 2 :). 
It's not focussed on it but it had some (really good xD) spice in there as well. If you're remotely interested in fantasy this is a must read! I was really scared it was going to let me down from the hype it got but it's well deserved :)
