Fourth Wing Spoilers!!
We all need a friend like Rhiannon who not only is supportive but who will also cover the three stars, wingleader tag, fourth wing emblem on the shoulder of a jacket belonging to your ‘enemy’ in front of your ‘childhood best friend’.
I love how Rhiannon is ride or die Violet Sorrengail from the beginning. She's so ready to square up against Xaden for her
Imogen and the others when violent offered to break into her moms office:
“I’ll do it, too,” Rhiannon says over her shoulder. “I’ve never moved anything as big as you, but I bet my signet could put you in the ground without even disturbing the dirt if I’m pissed enough.” She shoots a look at him before walking down the hallway.
Someone needs to give Rhiannon a 'best BBF ever' award

Fourth Wing as shit my friends have said.
Rhiannon: I fucking hate this, I’d rather do the devil than do physics.
Violet: What, like have sex with the devil?
Rhiannon: Yes.
Violet: You would actually, willingly, fuck the devil?
Rhiannon: Over physics? Without question.
Violet: I’m weaker than a bottle of Randor Fizz.
Imogen: Okay, name one time I hurt you.
Violet: You’ve literally kicked me in the tit before.
Imogen: Oh yeah, that was really funny.
Tairn: If you don’t do this, those bitchshits win, are you going to to let the bitchshits win?
Violet: Did you just say bitchshits?
Tairn: Do you want me to be supportive or not?
Nadine: Can you please shut the fuck up and pay attention so I can be a bitch later.
Ridoc: Panini's are just the penises of food.
Sawyer: Where the fuck did your brain go?
Liam: Assuming he had one in the first place.
Ridoc: Shut up, your a minority.
Rhiannon: The only way I’m passing history is thanks to a manky talking puppet rat.
Liam: What?
Violet: She’s binging horrible histories.
Sawyer: Surely your mum can’t be that bad.
Violet: You only say that because you’ve never met the bitch.
Mira: I’m your big sister, it’s my job to bully but to also beat up dickheads and wankers that give you shit. That’s just how life works.
Imogen and the others when violent offered to break into her moms office:
will be listening to absolutely NO fourth wing hate or criticism, sorry. it's actually perfect and it possesses not a single flaw.
I'm rereading fourth wing and iron flame again so here are my thoughts on what each character's signet says about them as a person (spoilers for both books ahead):
Violet (lightning wielding): she is exactly as xaden calls her, violence. she's insanely stubborn and has quite a temper. she has a deep seeded need to defend the people and places that she cares about.
Xaden (shadow wielding): this one's easy because it's spelled out plainly by violet herself. xaden has secrets he needs to protect.
Xaden (intinnsic): signets often manifest based on need, and xaden's position as a revolutionary leader means that he needs to be able to make snap judgments about people and their intentions. he needs to know who he can trust.
Dain (memory reading): this one is also spelled out by violet. he's fucking nosy as shit.
Bodhi (signet countering): bodhi is often described as a more reasonable version of xaden. he's an incredibly neutral guy in most cases, and he's often the voice of reason during conflict.
Mira (ward building): she's a big sister, a protector. she can literally shield the people that she loves.
Brennan (mending): brennan is described as being an incredible tactician. he's a problem-solver. he fixes things. being a mender means he can not only heal people but literally fix objects.
Rhiannon (retrieving): i actually don't know if anyone has any ideas i'd love to hear them.
Ridoc (ice wielding): ridoc's signet is super interesting because it seems to directly oppose his fiery personality. my best guess is that it's because he's the comic relief who can cool people off during emotional moments.
Liam (farsight): he's super perceptive. there are multiple moments when he's able to gain unique insight on people and situations.
garrick (unknown): please rebecca give us more garrick moments we don't even know what his signet is i'm begging you.
Oh sorry! Then could you do Violet and Rhiannon with a nonbinary! S/O whos a scribe but the dragons like them a lot, even Xadens dragon, who only likes Xaden?
Sure thing lol. If I spell anyone’s names wrong because I listened to the audiobook so correct me please:)

•Tairn will harass violet to no end until she finally asks you out
•Andarna playing with you(head butting you, getting the zoomies like a dog when she sees you)
•Rhiannon throwing you over her shoulder and plopping you in front of feirge, who promptly licks you, making your hair stand up. Fuckin gross.
•sgaeyl HAS nuzzled you at least once. Quite unsettling. Especially since xaden can’t do anything about it.
•you, violet, and Rhi on as much of a date as possible (probably just a walk or something) and tairn shows up out of nowhere. Bro goes where he wants(especially when his human and her partners are there)
•Xaden low key hating you since you are the only other one sgaeyl likes
~~
A/N: I hope this was everything you where looking, lol! This was my first time writing one of these and I’m only like three quarters of the way through fourth wing sooo:)
Fourth Wing - the prelude to the empyrean Series
I‘m finish with Fourth Wing and OMG is this book Worth the Hype. The ending for the first book was way to good. I nearly cried at same time I was in Awe. Holy Shit is This Book Well written was the only thing I thought. I can’t wait to Start with Iron Flame.
I just have a few Issues. The Releationship between Violet and Xaden is to much in the Focus and honestly very uninteresting. Xaden himself is also not very interesting. There are moments were you think you should feel something for him, but you don’t. He’s just Rhysand and Darkling but without any of the character, he is pretty two dimensional and actually not that impressive. The tension between him and Violet is kept to a minimum, they have in my opinion just one good conversation were there is little chemistry and one good moment on the parapet but the others. They are just horny for one another, nothing else. He doesn’t try to kill her, it would be more interesting and would help the chemistry if he just try to kill her as revenge on her mom. We actually don’t know why they are attracted to each other, other than Violet saying he is so hot and that’s it. Also about Violet, everyone is saying she’s similar to Hiccup from httyd, and yeah she is but in the Tom-Way from T9R similar, I would say either. I was actually really disappointed that the Releationship between Violet and her dragon(s) and the political stuff is not the Focus of the Story. But it’s not a bad book, it’s just not the best. Don’t expect ACTOR Level of Storytelling and Action.
I can highly recommend it, for people who are new to the Fantasy Genre!
Iron Flame - Review
Burn. It. Down. Indeed. No, but I really enjoy the second part of the Fourth Wing Saga Even though I have to forgive Rebecca Yarros that she killed one my favorite Characters. The only thing I criticize is that the Love story is in both books to much. And there’s pointless smut also, which for me personally doesn’t feel like a real romantic-releationship more like a physical one. People will I hate me if I say that, but I don’t care about Xaden Riorson. I couldn't form an emotional connection with him because when I look at him I’m just seeing Rhysand and Darkling again. And the Darkling and Rhysand are similar but are characterwise very different, Xaden is a decent character but he doesn’t have what grabbed me when I read about Rhysand or the Darkling. But there are more things I really like then dislike, Violet for example she’s still a very good protagonist and I like the things she’s going trough trough out the book. It’s always interesting with her because she’s smart but also really caring. Some people compare her to Hiccup from httyd, I get they are similar, but I think personally that Hiccup is more complex and more relatable than Violet, don’t get me wrong she’s cool but doesn’t stick out that much, than Hiccup, Celaena, Feyre, Nesta, Zoya or Inej does. As I said before I don’t really care about her Relationship with Xaden that much, don’t get me wrong I like Love-Stories and Romantic stuff in books as in movies very much but at some points I had the feeling that Violet was over focused on Xaden. I know there life’s where attached to each other thanks to their Dragons, but even Feyre from ACTOR wasn’t that over focused on her mate or want to fuck him before a fucking War starts. Their Relationship is definitely the weakest part of the book and should be more in the background, I think that would’ve done overall great story wonders. The political stuff and the Dragon stuff is actually more interesting. Maybe the other three books will get me invested in Xadens Character, if it’s not his Perspective. Apropos Dragons I have to give credit to Tairn and Andarna, they were fantastic. I also really like that we see the see more of the releationship Violet has with her Dragons. But overall I have to confess I like the Dragons from httyd much more, they feel more real. I also really Love Violet and Sloanes relationship near the end, I just wished Violet would be more of a Mentor figure maybe some kind of a sister for Sloane when they resolved their conflict. Syrena and Cat I also liked, but Cat was a bitch until the end happen. But I like that Violet and her now accept each other. I just wish the side characters weren’t that blend. You know very little about them. The political that was going on was also very interesting, Navarre is a very fascinating Kingdom. The ending is very dramatic with Violets Mom sacrificing herself. Sorry but Idk why but I would’ve leave it with this ending instead of Xaden again and his red eyes and the whole scene with Jack. But overall I can recommend it, it’s enjoyable but I personally prefer the first book more. I also never saw so many roasting Videos on YouTube that for 2 hours straight. I mean yeah the Emperyean Series is a little overrated but it has potential and Rebecca Yarros is talented, the only thing that holds the Books a little back is the relationship between Xaden and Violet and also Xaden. But I wish Rebecca Yarros still the best, because I know writing, figuring out where the plot goes, plant Plottwits in it and at the same time make the characters complex and compelling is hard work. But if I were her, I would have waited a little longer to develop and figure more things out and get more feedback.
“Let’s feed her to Sgaeyl”
I love how Rhiannon suggests Sgaeyl and not Violet's dragons, Tairn or Andarna lol. (We all know Andarna would do it without thinking twice) What I wouldn't give to hear Sgaeyl's opinion on Cat.
