Dragonsong by Anne McCaffrey

4.0

---

Dragonsong is an enchanting novel about a young girl ostracized from her home and her journey of understanding and self-acceptance. Menolly is denied her true calling, a harper, because she is a girl. The treatment that Menolly endures in her home reminds me of people’s inability to dream and imagine a different life. The whole book was a touching tale of acceptance and compassion. It was a tender story of a youth who goes against society trying to fit in. Even if you’re an adult, this story is captivating and not only reminds us of the struggles we went through as children, but perhaps the struggles we go through daily to accept and love ourselves.
