To Shape a Dragon's Breath by Moniquill Blackgoose
4.75
Content Warnings: racism, colonialism, ableism, sexism, homophobia, blood, gun violence, hate crime, and violence.
Mention of: genocide, animal death, animal cruelty, suicide, death of parents, and internalized racism.
This book was incredible. I love all the lore within, how every so many chapters we get a story told to us, and I LOVE how the dragon's look.
Anequs is such a great main character. She knows who she is, where she's from, and isn't ashamed to speak up when she needs to. Although she's stuck living within a different culture, one that views hers as below them, she stand firm in her teachings and culture. She is determined to learn what she needs to ensure her dragon doesn't cause unintentional harm or danger so that she can return home and help her people.
I love that this book has short chapters, short chapters always make it easier to get through books imo.
I have no idea when book 2 is set to release but I look forward to learning more about Anequs, her people, those that she's connected to, and just more about her life.
