Oh broken string and bent arrow!
You’ll never run out of something enjoyable to read when there are books such as The Fletcher, [b:The Archer|39670165|The Archer (The Arrow of Artemis, #2)|K. Aten|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1522243881l/39670165._SY75_.jpg|61255407], and [b:The Sagittarius|41565724|The Sagittarius (The Arrow of Artemis, #3)|K.

She’s lived a sheltered life (i.e., strict patriarchal region, taught only by parents, no significant peer interactions, etc.). As can be expected from this type of life, Kyri is at times too serious (
