This was a fun read overall. The book excerpts, podcast transcripts, emails, etc at the start of the chapters was pretty cool. The side characters seemed to kind of outshine the main characters. Some things felt rushed like the relationships and the ending. I also kinda wish there was more to the fandom and more stuff like Buffy brought up.

There were so many times I was thinking WTF with this book. I’m so happy she got to the point of accepting help and doing to work to get better. Working on yourself can be so hard and having the courage to say no to things that negatively affect your healing and to pursue what brings you joy.

I enjoyed Iron Flame, tho not as much as I loved Fourth Wing. Iron Flame felt like it could have easily been 2 separate books with what happened. I got really frustrated with the lack of communication primarily between Violet and Xaden and while I enjoyed the spicy scenes on there own, I felt like they came at times where I wanted to know the result of something else that just happened. I enjoyed the action in the story and the character growth. I am really curious and excited for Onyx Storm!

I really enjoyed this book overall. While the first half of the book was on the slow side for me, once it picked up it was really good. Some kind of side things in the ending I did kind of feel like were glossed over, but I’m sure it’ll be addressed in the next book. I love Lachlan, the things he did might have had me liking him more than Rowan.
