The hype around Fourth Wing, by Rebecca Yarros, is real. It is all over BookTok, so of course I had to read it. But there was just one problem: it was a series. A series. With only 1 book out. If I were to read this book, I would be stuck waiting and waiting and waiting for the next book. Absolute torture. But the constant ambush of reels on my for you page swayed me.
I will be brutally honest, I read this book in a day. I could not put it down. I can’t even tell you why or how, but the book sucked me in so thoroughly that it was three am and I refused to go to sleep. I was determined to finish this book. And finish it I did.
This book is for sure the new it book for fantasy – sorry ACOTAR but I full on love this book far more. I highly recommend giving this book a read, even if you don’t read fantasy often, because this book will continue to be talked about religiously. I mean, come on, it was released May 2 and 301,579 people have already rated it on goodreads. So without further adieu, I implore you, go read this book.
