An ancient family diary. A timely prophecy. An epic conclusion. As Sylvia prepares to meet Gabe’s parents for the first time, the last thing she needs is for her long-lost father to cause trouble. While his answers to her questions finally bring clarity, they also usher in danger. But that's not all her elusive father brings into Sylvia's life. His treasured gift of an ancient journal passed down through the generations, connects her to the past with its mystical spells and captivating stories.

Loved the slow build of the fantasy world and the romance. Found Willy’s voice to be annoying, but also disliked her character immensely 😅 I have not read the series about India Glass and was not confused about the storyline of this book.

Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail 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-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.

Overhyped
Reviewed: 07-06-23
The narrator clearly is fighting a cold. Listening to her narrate is like watching a Mucinex commercial that lasts for 15+ hours.
This book is barely fantasy. It’s full of cliches and redundant dialogue. We get it. The main character is frail. She’s becoming a rider against all odds. How many people do we need to hear it from in one chapter??? She’s supposed to be smart, she wanted to be a scribe after all. How can she go from fearing her own demise in a few seconds to noticing the incredible physique of a guy standing off in the distance? This isn’t even well done romance. This is amateurish romance with a dash of dragons as side characters. Waste of time and overhyped on social media.
