Going Down in Flames

review 1: I really enjoyed this book-it reminded me of a cross between Harry Potter and The Vampire Academy, which I really liked. When we first meet Bryn, she is walking to her parents store when she notices some guys beginning to follow her. Like any smart female, she goes into a brightly lit coffee shop that is filled with people and calls her parents. What follows changes her whole life forever.At times, Bryn did annoy me. She was immature at times, but I gave her leeway because of the situation she found herself in. I think finding out you are a shape-shifting dragon, hauled off to a boarding school where you are viewed as a freak, gives her some rights to her attitude. She develops a crush on Zavien, who was the one who followed her into the coffee shop.I must say I did like Z... moreavien. He had moments of being an insensitive prick, but he made up for that. He is always honest with her, and cares about her, which is important for Bryn in an environment that is very hostile. It doesn't hurt that he is dishy.The book does move a tad slowly. It takes a while before any real action happens, but the characters are engaging, and I can't wait to read the second book.
review 2: I loooved this book! My favorite genre is paranormal romance (usually vampires), but Chris Cannon has opened the door to dragons for me! Bryn is a great main character! She doesn't conform, she's witty,and is "a breath of fresh air" at the Institute. Her love interest, Zavian, is exactly what you want him to be, though I'm kind of into Valmont too ;-)! I would definitely recommend this book (and have via Facebook, Twitter, G+ and word of mouth) to anyone that is looking for a great read! Yes,I got book hangover from staying up waaay too late to finish it lol! I can't wait for the 2nd (and 3rd and 4th...) book(s) in the series to be released! less
