Decided to dock the review score down after reading Melody's review. How did I miss that? Everyone being abusive to Mira, servant fake friends, strong black woman trope? I guess I got too caught up with the protagonist being black.

I still like that part along with the whole dragons theme. I'll still continue to read the rest of the series to see how Mira, more importantly, the people around her, develops. As much as I liked the book, I cant recommend to anybody because of the problems above.

It's important that we look beyond bias and our emotions because one sits doesn't fit all. Not all black people are the same. We are all different with different personalities, different interests, and different backgrounds. One personality or behavior isn't the concrete for all black people.
