Chapter 46
(view spoiler)[I am not fan of super people and here he is fighting with his unmend wounds. But I bet this other fighter has some emotions too about this whole thing. What's his bond to Elluin? (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[I bet she left to protect him? Or someone/something, the kingdom maybe? And I am pretty sure something traumatizing has happened. Or has she took something to forget? Some potion. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ poor Slatra!!!! I feel the same way!! I was crushed about her. (hide spoiler)]

[Johanna]

Chapter 55
(view spoiler)[I cried when I read about Slatra. Noooo :'( How she had given breath to her, and that was the reason why she was still alive when the moon fell. Poor friend, this was heartbreaking (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[I want desperately know who else she has lost, there is more of them than what we know at this point. This is going to be rough book to read (hide spoiler)]

[Johanna]

Finished
(view spoiler)[I really adored the beginning of the book! The world was amazing and I was intrigued to know more. But then I felt like we never got to know more. She travelled and the setting was suddenly isolated. And there were so many things we didn't know. And still are. And because so many things were kept mysteries it started to irritate more than intrigue. I wanted to know more but we got so little information. I liked romance even though it was lacking some building up. It was easy to understand why he loved her but she was a bit too attracted because he was a new person to her. I don't know. I liked this book, I really do. And this was something different and that was so nice. But at the same time I think this was a bit long thinking about how little happened. (hide spoiler)]

Up to chapter 71 (view spoiler)[ Ugh!!! Why is Raeve resisting so much!?!? I want her to give in and be with Kaan as they are so meant to be together. I know she feels it too. She just has to! (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ I know!!! It’s so sad!! I’m actually sad reading most of this. It’s too heartbreaking and I feel like there’s not going to be a happy ending. (hide spoiler)]

[Shannara]

Finished (view spoiler)[ I ended up really liking this!!! Raeve is awesome and I love her stubbornness and fierceness. Very interesting!! And the world building was really good!! Loved all the dragons. I cannot wait until the next book comes out!!! (hide spoiler)]

Not sure who’d planned to read this, but in just about to start if you’re still on for the buddy read.

[Karen]

Have found this a really slow starter. Up to ch10 and, dare I say it, I'm a little bored.

[Kay-Mika]

Will start this weekend.
I had a cold and wanted to read something light and a no-brainer, so I read a different book first.

You are father than I am.
I'm at Chapter 1 and it gives me Throne of Glass vibes. I hate Throne of Glass.

[Karen]

First quarter. As often happens, finding the opening slow going so have dipped in and out and not got very far. Don’t understand why Raeve is doing what she is, or why people are out to kill her. Hoping to focus on it and try to get more absorbed (doesn’t bode well though).

That is my feeling, too😅

[Karen]

Second quarter. Up to ch45. For such a skilled killer she seems to find herself in dangerous situations with remarkable ease.

[Karen]

Third quarter. Now the diary entries make more sense. The dragon involvement is moving more to the fore, though we still don’t know why Raeve has the bond she does. It’s definitely become more interesting now I’m focusing solely on it, but I still don’t understand all the fuss.

[Karen]

Finished. Took a lot longer than I was expecting to really get going, and even now I’ve finished I’m struck by how much it seems to focus on setting up what I imagine to be our focus for book two.

It took a while to get round to this, but things clicked for me once we got to this stage.

I'm the worst for doing this, and then find myself trying to play catch up!

Don't know if you're persevering with this. It took me far longer to get underway/into this than I was expecting. It did pick up, but I'm not sure I get the fuss about it.

If I haven't finished it by Friday, I DNF it

[Kay-Mika]

(view spoiler)[ Raeve is the writer of the diary entries.
Her brother died, but she got a dragon.
The stranger is the uncle of the princess and Raeve is going to fall in love with him.
He may or may not be send to kill Raeve. (hide spoiler)]

[Kay-Mika]

Chapter 25
(view spoiler)[ So far the book has nothing to offer except violence (hide spoiler)]

[Kay-Mika]

Sorry, I DNF the book.
I feel asleep twice(!!!) while trying to read it, which I take as a sign of the reading gods.

Starting this one a little early :)

Chapter 2: (view spoiler)[ The prologue was really interesting with how the gods created the world and how the dragons became moons. But how did that dragon fall when Caelis was bound? Already intrigued. Also, so far I like Raeve - definitely want to know more about her and her mission - and also this dark stranger that is now drawn to her. Friend or foe? Or both? (hide spoiler)]
