I haven’t been this mad since I finished the first LOR movie and they still hadn’t gotten to the mountain 😤 this series is not for the impatient. Loved Sparrow tho.

Let me begin by saying that if you're looking for a book that is full of quick-paced action then this is not the book for you.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book despite the fact that it is drastically different that the typical stories I read. This is a story about a girl, Tamras, leaving her home to stay with the Lady of the land along side with several other women, both young and old, from all over. Tamras takes us through her first year or so of her stay at Lady Merin's house, detailing her relationship with her fellow companions, warriors, and Mothers. This is very much the beginnings of a coming-of-age story as Tamras spends a lot of time struggling to understand her own feelings around the group of strangers she now lives with and the odd mannerisms and attitude of the outsider Tamras calls her warrior.
Tamras reminds me of myself when I was a teenager, stubborn with the idea that I knew what was best for myself and no one would change my mind. And i think that's what really drew me into the story. I'm very excited to ready the other books in the trilogy.
