heather_wuest shared a tip "The main character thinks and makes decisions that have consequences. Well written and uplifting. Exciting read for when you are feeling down. You will be drawn in and make friends."

caitlin_draeger shared a tip "The next generation of female warriors in Tamora Pierce's legends of Tortall. Kelly has no magic, but she is tall, strong, smart and here to take on the bullies of the world. Pierce has never shied away from talking about real issues that may occur from a woman in that environment, and she doesn't start now- however it is still written for YA. #girlpower"

mimi_8319 shared a tip "My favorite is the third book in the series. But it's on the whole a good read. Yamani islands seem to be based off of Japanese culture, so she has a multicultural view of the word. The third book a good amount of closer happens without making the 4th book irrelevant, she fights hard to get to where she is going."

mimi_8319 shared a tip "Also, if you haven't read other parts of the Tortallan world. Start with the Song of the Lioness series. Easy reads, and her books get better from there as you go along."
