This wasn’t bad, but you could tell something was missing – maybe it was too low stakes or the characters didn’t develop much. Dragonfruit is strictly plot development.

But I did enjoy the female friendship (spoiler: You think it’s going to be typical girl hate but Rosamie has different motives for wanting Sam’s affection), the dragonfruit lore + the sentient tattoos, how characters aren’t just black and white with morality, and the tense family relations of Jejomar.

There’s potential for a very sweet ‘childhood friends to lovers’ romance here, but it’s almost nonexistent and rapid.

2.5

3.5

Dazzling sea dragons, desired dragonfruit eggs and deadly wishes.

That rating is basically for the sea dragons and Fetu.

This had an interesting premise but the execution was off. The pacing wasn’t quite right and the romance lacked chemistry. Highly valuable information wasn’t passed on and the choices made regarding dangerous criminals were silly. As I said, the idea is fantastic but it wasn’t fully fleshed out.
Justice for the sea dragons

This was fun.
I liked the characters, the mystery was great - Cas sounded much older than his years, I kept forgetting he was a teen. I wish they had done more with his magical gifts but all in all it was enjoyable.

One of the smoothest transitions to a second book I've read. This time Reyna, who was a minor player in the first book, steps into the protagonist role and does a stellar job. The romantic tension between her and Levi is great, and the events and tight situations in the story make for a fast page turning experience. This is the third book I've read by the author and I'm looking forward to many more.
