Fourth Wing

Such a great romantasy-- I heard people talking about it and loved the world-building, the character development, and the romance at the heart of the story.

Loved Violet’s character, the underdog winning against the odds

Dragons, great characters (including the dragons!), plot twists and political machinations. Did I mention dragons?
Sucks you in to its amazing fantasy world and makes it completely believable. There's wit and drama, tension aplenty, and several plot twists that will leave you breathless.
I enjoyed it so much I moved straight on to the sequel, 'Iron Flame'. Book 3, 'Onyx Storm' is due out in January 2025 and I'm gasping to find out what happens next.

This book is good. This might get me crucified, but I do think there are things that could have been done better. I would have liked to see more with Xaden’s crew, possibly even Xaden himself. I would have liked the underlying mystery to be more prevalent instead of just sort of jumping in at necessary places. (Violet is supposed to be the smart one, so I feel she could have been more focused on things that were odd)
Don’t get me wrong. This book is good. I liked it very much. I will be reading the others as well.… show more.

Lots of action, twists, and worldbuilding and the dragons were amazing. I really liked the dragon-human interactions and the different signets. I enjoyed the characters as well.

This book has all the yummy feels of a good romance/fantasy adventure. I don't read fantasy – and yet this sucked me in and wouldn't let me go. Pacing was on point, characters grew, plot was plausible.

I was worried this book had too much hype and would let me down, but it was (simply put) an engrossing, fun read and I loved the world the author created. It's like Yarros took bits and pieces of every dystopian and fantasy story I love and put into one book. It was easy to read, which is is why it appeals to so many readers (in my opinion). It's one of those books you can binge and feel like you're getting a delicious treat.

It was comparable to being a kid reading Harry Potter for the first time. Couldn't put it down!

I mean, come on—you’d have to be living under a rock to not know about this series and the insane speculation, hype, and anticipation for Book 3 (Onyx Storm) coming in January 2025. I have to admit, I can’t wait.

Rebecca Yarros certainly left Book 2 on a cliff-hanger-slash-oh-no-she-didn’t shocker that’s still hard for me to wrap my brain around. But I will wait patiently and spend the month of December re-reading Books 1 and 2 instead.

If I had to describe Fourth Wing in one word it would be: gripping. The main character, Violet, is such a wonderful mix… show more.

Say hello to a strong, resilient female character who doesn’t know the definition of surrendering. And the dragons! They are mythical, fierce, full of secrets, and…they talk to the riders.

This world is filled with an amazing mixture of magic, fantasy, and hints of modern elements. The love story is enemies to lovers, which I absolutely adored and couldn’t get enough of. The family element was also something that captivated me.

I could relate to some challenges and struggles the FMC went through with her siblings and mother along her journey. There were so many twists and surprises that took… show more.
