The hype around Fourth Wing, by Rebecca Yarros, is real.  It is all over BookTok, so of course I had to read it.  But there was just one problem: it was a series.  A series.  With only 1 book out.  If I were to read this book, I would be stuck waiting and waiting and waiting for the next book.  Absolute torture.  But the constant ambush of reels on my for you page swayed me.

I will be brutally honest, I read this book in a day.  I could not put it down.  I can’t even tell you why or how, but the book sucked me in so thoroughly that it was three am and I refused to go to sleep.  I was determined to finish this book.  And finish it I did.  

This book is for sure the new it book for fantasy – sorry ACOTAR but I full on love this book far more.  I highly recommend giving this book a read, even if you don’t read fantasy often, because this book will continue to be talked about religiously.  I mean, come on, it was released May 2 and 301,579 people have already rated it on goodreads. So without further adieu, I implore you, go read this book.

Howdy! I’m Gabriela Gomez, an avid reader who is interested in all areas of publishing and writing. And reading of course! I’m the Editor-in-Chief; I currently oversee all the publishing of articles for the Her Campus at TAMU chapter. I am overjoyed to read all the members’ articles and make any corrections that will help to elevate the article. I have been with Her Campus at TAMU since my freshman year. The first year I was a general member on the Writing and Editing committee. During that first year, I wrote a total of 23 articles and was always finding new ways to help. For my second year, I worked as the Senior Editor, publishing more than 80 articles and writing 38 articles. Now in my second semester of junior year, I have implemented a new pitch process for better organization and cleanest, I have already published more than 170 articles, and I have written 16 articles and will continue writing more! Besides working as the Editor-in-Chief, I am a dedicated student at Texas A&M studying Biomedical Sciences. I am also obtaining a minor in both English and Spanish. While not studying diligently, I work in a research lab grinding away, trying to get my name on some research papers (fingers crossed). In my free time, I read, obviously. I am also on the hunt for the best latte to ever bless this earth and love a good game of chess!
