Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros
3.75
Yes, I read Fourth Wing, but only because a few of us started a sort of mini bookclub and Kaylee chose this book.
While I did enjoy it, I found several parts of the story to be predictable. I agree with others who have said it reads like a young adult novel with sex that is more graphic. But, that doesn’t bother me. I sometimes read young adult novels.
Tairn is my favorite character. He’s curmudgeonly and sassy. Of course he’s my favorite.
One of my favorite things about how this is written is how chapter breaks don’t equate to the end of a scene or arc. What’s happening at the end of one chapter might continue into the next. A lot of authors treat that break as an end or as a time to change tact. I appreciate that not being the case here.
I’m looking forward to discovering more of the history in the next books. I’ll be disappointed if it doesn’t happen.
