Just JJ’s top pick:

Title: Fourth Wing

Author: Rebecca Yarros

Genre: Fantasy

             (May 2nd 2023)

Violet Sorrengail was supposed to have a quiet life as a scribe. Now forced to join hundreds of candidates striving to become elite dragon riders at the brutal Basgiath War College, Violet’s brittle body means she is constantly a heartbeat away from death. With only two ways out – graduate or die – Violet must rely on her wit and push herself in order to survive. Worse still, Violet suspects leadership may be hiding a terrible secret. Alliances will be forged, lives will be lost, and Violet will have to pick a side.
