This was an enjoyable read, definitely. I liked the way it really felt like I was reading a memoir of a female dragon researcher 'back in the day'. This was what I needed to read when I started it, but towards the third part it started dragging in narrative for me. Picked it up on a train ride again and the ending was alright. I think midway through it was more of a 4/5 and as it got to the third part I just lost interest. I can't tell if it was the writing or just myself.
