Bravely by Maggie Stiefvater
5.0
5 stars
The basic premise of this book is: A couple of years after the events of Brave, Merida must make a bargain with two gods to save her home. She must travel to three different kingdoms and help guide her family to change, or else her entire home and family will be destroyed
Even if you feel indifferent about the movie Brave, this book is definitely doing its own thing. I know sometimes the Disney books aren't great, but this really felt fresh and new and good. You don't even need to know the plot of the movie to still read and understand this. This book could exist on its own. It doesn't feel weighed down by the film, and feels like a more mature and realized next adventure, and it's written by Maggie Steifvater, so really, I shouldn't need to say anything more
