She’s known across the Fallen Isles not just for her beauty, but for the peace treaty named after her, an agreement which united the seven islands against their enemies on the mainland.

But Mira has never felt as perfect as everyone says. She counts compulsively. She struggles with crippling anxiety. And she’s far too interested in dragons for a girl of her station.

After

Then Mira discovers an explosive secret that challenges everything she and the Treaty stand for. Betrayed by the very people she spent her life serving, Mira is sentenced to the Pit–the deadliest prison in the Fallen Isles. There, a cruel guard would do anything to discover the secret she would die to protect.

No longer beholden to those who betrayed her, Mira must learn to survive on her own and unearth the dark truths about the Fallen Isles–and herself–before her very world begins to collapse.

HOW DID I GET IT?

Bought it at Barnes and Noble when I saw it on the shelf. I mean, a gorgeous POC on the cover, and a book about dragons? Insta-buy.

WHEN DID I GET IT?

Gotta also be 2017 when it came out, or early 2018. I don’t remember.

WHY DO I WANT TO READ IT?

So at least this one isn’t gonna be like Mermaid… where it wasn’t about a real mermaid. I know this has to have dragons in it somewhere. I mean look at the cover, and the other books talk about it as well. There’s definitely dragons in this book. Plus one of the tags on Goodreads is on mental health, and I’m always looking for books that portray different mental health issues in a good way (not romanticizing them but also not pushing them to the side or vilifying someone for it, if that makes sense). I know I’ll get to this one eventually.

This one looks like I need to get on it ASAP. Who else has already read this and are you willing to let me know your thoughts? Or link me to your reviews? I’d love to know what my fellow bloggers think of this one. Until next time, my friends!
