1. The concept of graces is interesting along with the idea that your relationship to your grace might change over time.
2. The writing is pretty good.
3. I'm excited to read the other two books because the world building was good enough to hold me.

A riveting fantasy novel that treats issues of violence, corruption, and power through a delightful adventure-romance.

I especially appreciate that the heroine has intimacy issues.

Cashore’s writing is surprisingly fresh, evocative and nearly hypnotic. She doesn’t over describe; whenever she paints a picture, she describes it clearly and cleanly, which I find to be a blessing nowadays. She is intricate in her prose without being overly so, and it makes the book so much more pleasant to read.

About halfway through when I stopped reading this one. I'll get back to it, but while the characters are well-drawn and the action is good, the MC is so withdrawn and cold that it is difficult for me to really get attached to her. ...more

Excellent fantasy with a female that cannot be beat. There are echoes of Twilight in some ways, but it's more fun for me. ...more
