Gripping Story

Aspen – Book 2
Aspen and Obsidian are back for more adventure. Too many human body parts have shown up to pretend there isn’t a rogue dragon with a taste for human flesh. Aspen’s love of dragons is a rare point of view among the fear held by most other humans. Relationship problems in the form of Obsidian’s former lover don’t help the stress levels. But we do get to meet several new characters that I loved – like Runa. I was lucky to snag books 2 through 4 when they were on sale near the end of October. The first story was so intriguing that I immediately started this one and did not want to put it down – so I stayed up later than normal to finish it.

You will love this book if you love Mary Sue characters

You will love this book if you love Mary Sue characters, next to no plot, no consistency, playing light on rape, and over all a terribly written story. Spoilers ahead!!!

I have read all the books aside from the last. This book starts off with promise. A world we currently live in but with dragons. The main lead is a teenage girl who is irresponsible, feels invincible, not too bright, and hates pretty boys. She spends her time obsessively trying to take pictures of dragons which is the only thing that makes her unique. Dragons have a law that despite being hundreds of years old the potential kings must turn into their human forms for 10 years to see what it is like as a human. Despite being hundreds of years old and supposedly wise beyond measure, these potential kings have to go to high school under a strict set of rules. Main rule: No falling in love with a human and no having sex. Dragons mate for life once they have been ceremoniously mated. A dragon eats a human...and that's pretty much the thing that starts the rift between humans and dragons through out the book. This one dragon continues to eat humans.

Male dragon lead meets female lead and she is reminded of the guy who raped her since he looks just like him minus the eye color. She reacts so violently out of fear that she throws up on him and passes out. He tries to get her to like him, she decides halfway through the first book that she actually likes him and that his 99% same features as her rapist do not matter. They date. Girl decides she loves main lead dragon who is king of dragons and needs a mate. With serious trials that apparently a good portion end in death this girl passes with flying colors and even kills one of the most powerful dragons...with a sword....on accident. She gets to be queen of the dragons...and then another dragon turns black (the king dragon is black so there are now more kings which is a prophecy). Enter female lead older sister. Girl sleeps around without care, hates dragons and isn't afraid to voice it, and hates relationships because she gave up her virginity to a guy who she just met and find him with another girl the next night. So she meets 2nd king and basically through out the book insults the hell out of him and the other dragons and is consistent on her hate of them. Keeps him at arms length but all of a sudden decides she loves him and wants to be his queen. She doesn't go through the trails but has to decide the fate of one human and bam, she's queen. Last "king shows up" and its the lead female dragon (1st kings ex). And despite not liking humans she falls in love with the sisters' brother, who in itself is a lame Gary Sue story. I had to tap out after this.

Aside from this romance a 10 year old could write, the dragons and humans are almost at war. Dragons are almost at war with themselves too. Only the kings, with the strength of their human queens, can save the world. *eye roll*

More and more dragons in this book and its wonderful! I love anything Kimberly Loth writes and I ...

More and more dragons in this book and its wonderful! I love anything Kimberly Loth writes and I am super happy I started her dragon series. It's unlike anything I've read. The characters have good depth and they keep you guessing.

Reading the first couple pages I actually thought she did what I was scared of. (probably doesn't make sense til you read it lol). Thank goodness though, she didn't. Phew, bullet dodged. Aspens brother Rowan finally gets more outgoing and faces his fears and I love that. Seeing his progression and him finding out that working out is a good release for all that anxiety and fear, it's definitely relatable. Him and Skye is beautiful, I wish Skye would feel the same way that he does. And isn't Runa just the cutest thing!

Oh and I totally called it! I was right about who the murdering Dragon was! Can't wait for Sid finds out. Ohhhhh there will be drama lol.

Off to the next book!

the way Rowan's anxiety is treated left an incredibly bad taste in my mouth

So I read Obsidian, and just finished Aspen. I have to say, the way Rowan's anxiety is treated left an incredibly bad taste in my mouth.

Otherwise, interesting story.
