The Time Tournament by Lara Bronson
4.0
adventurous challenging emotional medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes

This was the perfect mix of time travel, fantasy, found family, and dragons. The world building and political aspects are amazing! I felt fully immersed and just as attached to all of the characters as the FMC. 

I loved the relationships that Elena forged while at the Keep and with her fellow riders. I can see how to some the romance part feels rushed or out of nowhere, but I feel like it was great! It wasn't the normal slow-burn, but definitely hate to love until something forced the reality of what they felt for each otherđź–¤ 

The last 25% though?! Maaaaan, my heart HURT. I saw the betrayal coming, but not like that and it still gave me absolute chills. I cannot wait for the next book!

Thank you so much to the author for the gifted copy!
