#WhatchaReading? I DNF’d Return to Mariposa by Anne Stuart. It’s highly implausible, there’s a huge continuity error, and it just felt… disconnected from itself, like nothing flowed in a reasonable way. A lot of the reviews say the book gets really stupid in the *second* half, so I decided to cut my losses.

    Currently Onyx Storm because of course you have to read it first day! So many cliffhangers that were left over from Iron Flame that I can’t wait to get wrapped up. Though there is supposed to be a fourth book and I think Rebecca Yarros is supposed to have left a heck of a frustrating one at the end of this book.

      there’s actually gonna be 5 books. Rebecca Yarros said recently she’s plotted them all out, but she’s taking a break to recoop from having 2.5 years of no breaks writing the first three.

        That’s terribly exciting! Though I think I’ve heard the same about her needing some much deserved R&R from the first three. But dang it she’s got us hooked now, and I want my dragons!!

            There is indeed a particularly gnarly cliffhanger, I won’t say too much more, but I enjoyed the read nonetheless!
