I loved Katsa from the very beginning and knew that a kick-butt lady killer was a heroine whose story I could really get into. Once I met Po, I just had to know more, had to know where this book was headed, and even though I thought I had a lot of it figured out, it still left me hopelessly, breathlessly in love and wanting more.<br /><br />As Katsa grew into her Grace more fully and realized what it was, I loved how insecure she was. I loved how she didn't want friends, didn't want love, and that's exactly what she got. The storytelling in this book was amazing and fresh. Have I said that I loved this book? Because I did. Even the more minor characters were well-fleshed out and wonderfully written.<br /><br />This was a great start to the series, and I can't wait to read more!<br /><br />As for next month - well, I already grabbed Wither and started it, but that's all right. I'll read whatever you pick, as long as I can get it from the library :)Jamie VanBeekumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08484127549784189232noreply@blogger.com
