Graceling
Have you ever mistaken a gift to be something else? Would you have the courage to gain control over your own terrifying skill? Do you enjoy action, romance, and mystery all in one book? Well then you have to read Graceling by Kristin Cashore. This novel is full of royalty, combat, unusual gifts and terrifying secrets, this book has everything!
Throughout the Seven Kingdoms, there are a small amount of people who have been Graced with the extraordinary ability to preform one skill exceedingly well. These few people are called Gracelings, have two different eyes, and are feared by most people. Since she was eight, Katsa has had the Grace to kill. As the king's niece, she is forced to do his dirty work. When she meets Po for the first time, she is unaware of the life ahead of her. Their journey together will uncover mysteries and new secrets. Will they survive the revelations up ahead?
I loved this book because Cashore has such a wonderful "Grace" at writing. She describes everything so vividly, and Katsa is such an unusual character that you just have to love her. Plus, the storyline is so genuine and well-planned that you instantly know it was written by a professional.
Will Katsa and Po safely complete their perilous journey? Is there a secret linked to Katsa's deadly Grace? Read Graceling by Kristin Cashore and your hunger for these answers will surely be satisfied.
