ohmygod omg omgomg holy shit. first half was the dragon school we all know and love was enjoyable seeing how their second year went on and what happened following the first book. then second half and oh man there was so much happening. the story’s pacing was definitely slower than the first as we’re now entering the middle of the series. the second half seemed less cohesive than the first half, i don’t really know where the story is going anymore but i guess that is to be found out more definitively in the next book. violet and xaden disagreement dragged out for way longer than i would have liked idk it got kinda repetitive. lots of secrets uncovered was like wow every single time

was not a fan of the one at the end though UGHHHHHH rebbeca you better do something good with it please just give violet and xaden a bit of peace in their relationship i’m begging you
