Books by Blei: The Girl of Fire and Thorns

 
The Girls of Fire and Thorns
by Rae Carson
 
Recommended by: Summer B.
The Girl of Fire and Thorns is about a 16-year-old girl name Elisa. She is not ordinary. She bears the Godstone, something that only comes around every century. A Godstone is where (usually at your naming ceremony, around 1 week old) you get chosen from God to do something important such as saving the world, or even writing a book. She gets married on her 16th birthday to King Alejandro. This takes place in Medieval times, maybe in Africa. Everyone is at war, and to make it worse, she gets mysteriously woken up in the night and after that nothing is ever the same again.
 
This book was: Great! Unexpected.

I would recommend this book to: Anyone with a good memory - to follow and remember almost everything!.
A/R Level:  MG
A/R Points: 15.0
