vel629vet 's review for:

Iron Flame by Rebecca Yarros
3.5
adventurous tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Reread Jan 2025: this was an easier read the second time through, and I was much more forgiving of the plot choices. However, I was much less patient for the relationship talks every 5 pages. Added half a star. 

Read Jan 2024: Really struggled through this one but that is likely more about me than the book. 
So plot heavy that at times it seemed as though Yarros was just thinking, what could be the wildest thing to happen next??? Instead of considering the flow of the story.
