No, TICTOK never made me buy it! I have had this book on my TBR pile for a while because A: I liked the sound of it and B: I thought it would make a HNo, TICTOK never made me buy it! I have had this book on my TBR pile for a while because A: I liked the sound of it and B: I thought it would make a HUGE change from my go to crime books! Fourth Wing turned out to be much more enjoyable than I expected. If you're looking for an in-depth review detailing plot holes, the writing, characters, you are going to have to look elsewhere I’m afraid! Believe me, there’s plenty out there if you really want to know!
Fourth Wing is pure escapism, and that’s the beauty of this type of book. You can escape the reality of life and lose yourself.Fourth Wing features a kick ass heroine (Violet). She was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general - also known as her tough-as-talon’s mother - has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders.
Rebecca Yarros has created a world as compelling as it is deadly. I’m not sure I would have survived Basgiath War College past the first challenge! I got vertigo just reading about it! The thing I loved about this book is the Dragons, they’re lethal, terrifying, and powerful, but each has its own unique character and voice (I so want one).
This book has it all: battles, violence, treachery, and a very interesting love triangle. The wide cast of characters completely captivated me, as each one, whether good or evil, added something to the story. I particularly loved seeing the growing bonds between Violet and her dragons, as well as amongst her squad. I guess the big question is: Is it the best literature I have ever read? Definitely not. Was it gripping and highly entertaining? It’s a HUGE FAT YES from me. I loved my first foray into fantasy fiction, and i’ve already started reading Iron Flame the second book in the series.
