pauliree 's review for:
The Girl of Fire and Thorns
by Rae Carson
The first pure fantasy I've read in a while and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The heroine Alisa, has been born with a godstone in her belly and this is supposed to mean that she is destined for some great task, but as she is sixteen, overweight and a pampered princess, she doesn't actually feel up to the challenge.
I enjoyed her journey from pampered princess to leader of the revolution but of course on the way she must lose all the weight because fat people can't be heroes. That was the only miff I had with this book which was an otherwise solid read
