Fourth Wing Book Club
28 juni 2023 · 58 min
Buckle up dragon riders! It's finally time to talk about our June Book Club Pick, Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros. We share our thoughts on the book, why we think it went so viral, what quadrant we'd pick if we were in this world, and share our love for the dragons. Lees meer
We also discuss how Fourth Wing compares to other fantasy books like ACOTAR, Throne of Glass, Crescent City, and Zodiac Academy.
Editor's Note: A previous version of this episode did not acknowledge the main character's implied experience with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Though this wasn't explicitly mentioned in the book, we regret that we didn't catch this in pre-recording research as we both believe disability awareness and representation are incredibly important. - Becca & Olivia
