4⭐️25🍒i finished iron flame in april and i’m finally here to share a few of my thoughtsthis book had a very polarized reception in the bookish social media world and while i can understand where some of the criticism comes from i overall had a good time reading iron flamei adore this world and the various settings in which we find ourselves alongside violet and the crew the plot from fw continues in if simmering and intensifying the world expands and we take a deeper dive into concepts new and familiar there are constant developments that kept me turning the pages to find out what happens nextthat said the pacing felt a little backandforth at times i read one review where someone said it felt like a tv series adaptation in book form and i can totally agree with that we get start and stop intensities throughout the chapters like in episodes of a show and too many new characters imo i like ‘em but i would have loved more time spent with familiar facesnothing could stop my love for violet she went through a lot in fw and in if we work though it with her as she processes her experiences and navigates new obstacles if is definitely less introductory more exploratory into her character i can see why some readers didn’t vibe with that but i didtairn and andarna were gems as per usualthe romance in if didn’t give me the 🐱🦋 like in fw it was fine but underwhelming compared to what we had in book onexaden could still get it but i’m very invested in how he’s about to act in book three because… reasonsanywho a solid four star and yes i’ve already preordered onyx storm ⚡️✨
