I actually really enjoyed this, the world felt very compelling and I’m generally drawn towards draconic themes in books.

Four star mostly because I felt the beginning of the book a little slow and the end a little too rushed. I would have loved maybe a sequel that actually went into each individual character a bit more as I found them all very endearing and that only makes me want to learn more!
