Tahlia is a free spirit

I don't quite know how I would cope with a daughter like Tahlia.

Every day there would be reports from other villagers about something that she and her three friends had broken, messed up or stolen or someone they had tormented, teased, robbed or annoyed.

I'd either go out of my mind obsessing over her like her mother did or love and adore her like her father did.

It would be a dilemma.

I had to read this book because it was on so many lists of 'must-read' books and I'm reading them all. I like tales of Richard the Lion Heart's era – Robin Hood, Merry Men, sharp swords, pointy arrows and such so I jumped in. I started reading at abou ...more
