A review by beautifulandfullofmonsters
To Shape a Dragon's Breath by Moniquill Blackgoose

5.0

I loved this so much!!! Much like Fireborne but drawn more directly from more recent history. I loved the protagonist’s kindness and thoughtfulness. Her thought processes were fun to read. The storytelling style felt uniquely indigenous. I would love to see more fantasy books like this! The dragons could have been more present but I didn’t miss them too much! This story was so deliberate and had such nuanced themes, I didn’t realize it was YA.

Looking forward to more from this author! This book was especially impressive for a debut.
