I received this book through netgalley in exchange for an honest review
DNF @ 15%
See, I'm not sure if I can rate this... I feel like I might like or understand the world more if I had read Seraphina first. I knew this book would take place in the same world, but I didn't know it would overlap so much... So, there is a lot I don't know. Although, perhaps I still wouldn't like it because of how negative Tess is about Seraphina...not that I entirely blame her.
The other reason I turned this one down was because although the writing is entertaining and well done, the I really dislike the main character. Yes, she is in a negative and horrible situation, but she feels the need to be a martyr and live with it rather than just leave. She doesn't even do martyr very well considering how she gets drunk....
I was excited about the dragons, but the way the book talked about dragons, I wasn't too excited to meet them either, unfortunately.
So, I won't rate this in case not having read Seraphina is the biggest factor in understanding and connecting with this book.
