A Dragonbird in the Fern by Laura Rueckert

3.0

It’s not a bad book but , for me, it is forgettable. Nothing crazy happens during the book and most of it is just the main character learning the language and while I did lile that at the beggining, seeing her struggle because she’s dyslexic, it became repetitive and boring.

The romance is… meh. There is nothing epic to it and there is also no tension or slow burn to it either, it just happens and you know it’s going to happen. It is really frustraiting because they have really cute moments but the kind of insta love with no develpoment thing ruins it for me.

The same with the character, they have no development through out the book. The author doesn’t develop the world neither which has a lot of potencial and could have made an amazing political intrigue plot.

I knew who the killer was very early in the book but I did like the ending since I didn’t see that coming. And the whole thing with the watchers was really interesting even tho the author doesn’t really explain much and I would have love to know more about their story.
