Talking to Dragons by Patricia C. Wrede

4.0

This is the only book out of the series narrated entirely in first-person. It's also probably my favorite, next to the first book, because Shiara doesn't just decide to be polite and like it, but rather she struggles with not wanting to be polite, but doing it anyway - and meaning it! :)
I like to imagine that, given enough time, the development would become permanent. With some people, at least.
