Loved your rants and agree with Iron Flame. I loved Fourth Wing (flaws and all)...and I was so so excited for Iron Flame and was so disappointed. I keep seeing everyone posting about their shock at the end I get FOMO. I called one of the main twists like way before, so there wasn't that shock factor for me. Such a let down 😢

About the constant talk about farts and butts… that is literally what life with a young boy is like. 😂 And poop. No, ESPECIALLY poop. I kept a list of all the times my son mentioned poop one day and I kid you not, it was something like 30. If you live with a young boy, you will hear about farts, butts, and poop endlessly, for years on end. (I should add that it isn’t boy-exclusive; my daughter is absolutely guilty of it as well.)
