To Shape a Dragon's Breath | Moniquill Blackgoose

Pickpick

I read this book because it was an independent book store recommendation for the book of the year. I liked it more than I expected being about dragons. It was so much more than a fantasy book. I think it does a great portrayal of what colonization does and how backwards it feels and is. And most importantly how completely unfair. The dragons are great too. I looked for the sequel but no release date yet, but I‘ll wait with “bated breath”.

Sace Love that cover! Very good review. I‘m stacking this. 2d
SarahBookInterrupted @Sace in this case you can judge a book by its cover 😂 2d

LOVED it. By the time Violet‘s dragon bonded her, I was IN. Dragons, magic, numerous gruesome deaths, a bit of daft “sizzling” tension, great fun. I‘m all for the easy reads right now.

I'm not sure if I'm alone here, but I enjoy a disturbing number of the songs listed today. Not the creepy ones, but still...🤯😂
My vote is for Believer by Imagine Dragons.
But speaking of the creepy theme - my fiancee and I were listening to an ok cover of that Marcy Playground song 'Sex and Candy' and then we wondered who else may have covered it...

Billypar ... and that's how we found this testosterone-soaked version from a band I never heard of that has a very fitting name. I'm going to put it under the Spoiler tag because I do NOT recommend listening to it (trust me, it's not something you want in your brain - particularly the chorus 🤢). 6d

TieDyeDude Ha, I can't listen to that Imagine Dragons song because I always hear “Belieber,“ slang for fans of Justin Bieber. 🤣
I'll take your suggestion and just assume the worst with the other!

“Thanks“ for playing 😉

Ruthiella You are not alone! I like quite a few of the “worst” songs. 😂 6d
BarbaraBB I agree on all Imagine Dragons. Their music is so bombastic, I can‘t stand the drama. For that reason I‘m not a Coldplay fan either. 6d
RamsFan1963 @Billypar I liked their version of Happy Together 6d
Billypar @TieDyeDude I'm not a Bieber fan either, so that does sound like a bad combo to me. As for the second song - there's actually a twist - see my (soon to be posted) comment below. 6d
Billypar @Ruthiella Oh good - that's a relief! Lol. 6d
Billypar @BarbaraBB Agreed, I don't like Coldplay either. The sound for both seems sterile and bland to me, like they wrung out all the good stuff from rock. 6d
Billypar @RamsFan1963 So, I listened to Happy Together, and I agree - not bad! Then I went back and listened to Sex and Candy, and I still didn't like it, but it was nowhere near what I remembered. The song in my head sounded like Limp Bizkit covering the song, but this sounded more like Jefferson Airplane maybe? I checked a few other covers to see if I had the wrong song, but I don't think so. Memory is very strange! 🤔 6d
BarbaraBB Exactly! 5d

Dragon exterminator Robert, Princess Cerisse, and Prince Reginald find their worlds colliding when there‘s a new threat of magically bred dragons on the horizon.

I‘m so glad I read The Last Unicorn recently. Beagle has such a talent for lyrical writing that feels like a fairy tale. For all the briefness, we get character growth, adventure, fun side characters, a little romance, & a glimpse into a lush & fascinating world! 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

A movie in your mind is the best way to describe this. I am even more ready for book 3 now… which is now pushed out to January 2025. I need Onyx Storm pronto! I yet why Yarros needs to take care of herself in this - I also have EDS and sometimes you‘re just ridiculously exhausted for extended periods. I will do whatever it takes to help her get this bad boy finished, though. Seriously.

1. I used to be able to bend over and touch my hands flat to the floor while keeping my legs straight. Those days are long gone!
2. Lessa has a special talent with dragons.
