I loved this book, absolutely. I read it in less than a week. She did really well with LGBT+ representation. I found the story of the world and the characters very well done and couldn’t put down the book. Although my only problem with the book was how the entire book this plot for the dragon is built and built and I felt as though the ending was rushed, I was hitting the end and waiting for the big plot drop and it just kept getting pushed and pushed and eventually when it hit, it felt, underwhelming. The book also ended kinda open ended and personally i’m not the biggest fan of that but if you are that’s okay. The relationships never really get concluded, it’s kinda just, boom plot and then that’s it. overall it’s a really good book and I highly suggest it to alot of people.

I really enjoyed it and couldn’t put it down, yet in the end, it just left me so.. empty. I highly suggest this book to someone who’s ready for a kind of heavy slow read.
