THE VISUAL DEMONSTRATION I'M SCREAMING

[sarahmrgn]

don’t forget how she has to wear HER OWN armor that her sister made for her with dragon scales bc the military just doesn’t wanna make this armor that would save their soldiers lives ✨

[edenhines]

them: lacking riders
also them: killing off riders

[npredmore]

“the High Lord of the Night Court is here”
I’ve never read this book but lemme tell you I CACKLED-

[riankoch]

The fact that NO ONE roasts her for getting some when she damn near set the forest on fire? I would never have let that go

[christinarevis]

If you want to talk about the amount of time she says climb him like a tree let's talk about the amount of times she describes a man's emotion by the sound of his jaw

[RiveriaFall]

To be fair to Violet, she was meant to be a Scribe, she never wanted to be a Rider in the first place, so it makes sense that she isn't prepared for killing.
Everything else though, absolutely

[katiemay]

LMAO i think the trope about not wanting to kill people was her mindset of still being a scribe. She didn't want to be there in the first place

[raveybabey_]

Also the fact that as sood as xaden appears at anytime all she does is talk and think about xaden. Her entire personality becomes him until he leaves 😭

[ashleyhorine]

I loved her nickname being violence. It shows Xaden saw the strong side of her that no one else did ❤

[briannam.]

i hated that he kept calling her violence in really serious moments lmao

[wjsn-mdgc]

my personal biggest petpeeve was when the the characters would talk. like. this.

[ryannegentry]

I feel like violet not wanting to kill people only works bc she was forced to join the riders quadrant, like home girl spent her whole life wanting to be a librarian

[alexandraosborn]

“the High Lord of the Night Court is here”
For real though! The fact that they both had ominous tattoos, could summon shadows, had dark hair, and could read minds?

[littleghostie]

As someone who just finished the book today, I'm glad I'm not the only one who was annoyed by how damn often Violet mentions how hot Xaden is or how badly she wants to sleep with him. Like okay I get it, he's super hot and you're very sexually attracted to him, I don't have to be reminded almost every time he appears on the page.

[cheerfulsatanist]

Damn when i saw Dain i started screeching "Fuck off TAMLIN"

[baysreads]

the failling off the dragon part - top tier. i especially appreciate the visual reference

[foxglovesmixedmedia]

Loved the book, but my peeves were the modern references in a non-tech book. There is a part in the book where Violet says/thinks they "must have got their wires crossed." At no other point do they talk about wires, so that phrase just doesn't belong. Also...the riders falling off the dragons, who were totally okay with it...yeah. You're going to go through this whole rigorous process of training candidates and eliminating the weak, you're going to choose AND BOND with the person, and then you're just going to let them fall off before they know how to ride? I couldn't buy into that.

[jillianterwedo-malsbury]

GALE HAWTHORN and HIGH LORD OF THE NIGHT COURT were the two things I literally thought too! Verbatim.

[ragansreads]

Literally the whole book I was like “why the fuck aren’t they strapped into a saddle?!” And then when violet gets one and no one else I just 🙄
