Acne, Asthma, and Other Signs You Might Be Half Dragon by Rena Rocford

Writing Style: As I said, I really liked her writing, I think you will too. That part was pretty believable, and if you’re willing to believe in dragons, than all the other species make sense as well. As someone with eczema I liked the premise of skin issues actually hiding scales. Re-Readability: It was pretty short and I enjoyed Rena Rocford’s writing style and if there are more books I could see myself re-reading to refresh my memory. Readability: Good, it doesn’t have anything that made me uncomfortable or cause me to stop reading. Now here is my super short opinion/rating of the novel. I read an electronic ARC of this book from Netgalley. Now Allyson must choose between killing the father she’s always dreamed of, or letting her best friend die for a crime she didn’t commit.Īcne, Asthma, And Other Signs You Might Be Half Dragon is a new young adult fantasy novel written by Rena Rocford.
