All I gotta say is: WHEN IS BOOK 2 COMING?
Everything about this book is what I love in a fantasy series. Academic setting? Check. Complex characters? Check. DRAGONS? SASSY DRAGONS? check. Dystopian society with a evil ruler...wait that's just our modern society.
The main female characters motivation is relatable to me, and I really appreciate the fact that she makes bad decisions and has annoying moments. As an annoying academic validation craved older sister, I can relate.
I loved the cast of characters in this. I do have to say that I am not a fan of Ralph's character (shocker?) but it's like the writer couldn't decide if he loved the FMC or hated her, wanted to sleep with her or whatever. That's fine, I think we are suppose to be confused by him, but it was why this is 4 stars instead of 2.
Also, Atlas. If I had a dollar for every time I fell in love with a male character named Atlas, I'd probably be rich.
