Fourth Wing & Iron Flame

By Rebecca Yarros
First 2 books in a 5 book series. 

I enjoyed the first book (Fourth Wing) more than the second. 

But by the time I was reading the second? The stakes: so high. The choices: so incomprehensible. The relationships: a little uncomfortable. 

I still finished it. I still wanted to know how the second book ended. (I was irritated with how it ended.)

Will I read the rest of the series? 🤷‍♀️

When the Moon Hatched

By Sarah A. Parker
543 pages
Fantasy 

So. 

Yeah. 

There was a lot I didn't like about this book. The needless word shifts (slumber-terror vs nightmare, for example...) the way that they curse just like we do. The crudity. 

But it had some interesting things about dragons?

And I did want to know how it ended. 

Not interested enough to read the sequel, whenever that happens. 

all the Mercyverse

Patricia Briggs has an ongoing novel series about a coyote shape-shifter names Mercy Thompson. She's a mechanic. She is friends with vampires, werewolves, and fae. She's a force for chaos. 

There are so many. Alpha & Omega books too. 
These are just 3 of the ones I don't own and need to return to the library today.
