Fourth Wing by Rebecca YarrosMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
The first 2/3 of the book was 3.5 stars for me - no surprises, formulaic YA romance at a college setting, albeit with dragons. I liked the dragons and the relationships between the dragons and their chosen riders. I thought the rules around that wee pretty cool. But the other stuff - falling for the dangerous guy who is rough on the outside, emotional on the inside with trauma - par for the course.
The last 1/3 of the book though - wow - 5 stars. The climactic war scenes were so descriptive and centered more around the intense friendships that can be built in college times. Very well laid out, written, and executed. I felt like I could see the scenes and really felt the emotions of the characters.
Looking forward to reading the next book.
