I loved book 1 of the Scholomance series. For me, 2 & 3 weren't as good, but were still fun.
Temeraire was great to begin with - I mean, it is very much Hormblower with dragons, and if that's not your thing then it's not going to work, but it is definitely my thing - then really dips in the middle when it turns into a travelogue. I've only just returned to try to finish the series after a long break, and to be fair, book 8 (of 9) was a real step back up.
