In the same boat! I think there was so much hype around it that I went in with extremely high expectations. I still enjoyed it/found it entertaining - I really liked all the dragon politics/interactions, but definitely not one of the best in that genre I've read.

Will still probs read the next one though at some point haha (keeping my fingers crossed for more dragons)

Diksha Rawat (diksha_rawat) sorry, but, Agatha christie's - And then there were none.

odalin | 3 comments I’m sorry, but- one of us is lying. None of the characters had any depth to them, and the “plot twist” was reaaally predictable.

peyton ꪆৎ (lalaloopsies) | 5 comments the love hypothesis! the first half was decent, but the second half RUINED it for me. also, the whole thing with her being 'so small' compared to adam drove me insane
