A solid YA fantasy, this book has everything: a girl with a mystery, dragons who could fold themselves into human forms, a forbidden love, a charismatic prince, a political intrigue, and of course, music. The only thing this novel lacks is humans able to unfold into dragons. Maybe it is too much for...
Hartman's got it all. Music, dragons, strong women, romance, etc. But I just ... don't connect with Seraphina. The first 100 pages or so were a bit confusing for me as well, and the romance just didn't feel ... right.Take Penryn and Raffe. It's been two books, and they haven't even KISSED yet. They ...
It's been almost 40 years since the peace treaty between dragons and humans was signed in the kingdom of Goredd. Dragons have the ability to transform into humans, and quite a few have joined society as ambassadors, scholars, and teachers, but many humans continue to view dragons as soulless beasts....
I read a lot of fantasy, so it is always good to me, when a book comes along that is not typical; one that has a new twist on things and new ways/points of view to an old story. This was one of those books where I really don't know what to say at the end of it. It was very poetically written for one...

At first glance, I must admit that this book didn’t jump out at me. A pretty cover and a unique premise just weren’t enough. Add in the lengthy list of awards that were racked up – 2013 William C. Morris YA Debut Award, Cybil Award for Teen Fantasy and Science Fiction, Kirkus Reviews Best Teen Book ...
I enjoyed this book. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was for some reason (and I have no idea what) it felt like something was missing. The story was exciting at times, and it also sometimes dragged. However, I couldn't put the book down which had me up until midnight to finish. I love it wh...
***Note: this review assumes that you've read the book.*** One-sentence summary: a strong debut featuring intelligent dragons, a resourceful heroine, an out-of-place cutting scene, and some disappointing plot contrivances. Seraphina was great fun to read: I looked forward to it every night. I en...
