The Girl of Fire and Thorns
by Rae Carson
5/5 stars
The Girl of Fire and Thorns by Rae Carson was a an amazing and refreshing change of pace. This book tells the story of a young, 16-year-old girl who carries the Godstone, a stone in her navel that signifies her divine calling. She has been chosen by God... for what? Princess Elisa struggles with coming to terms with who she is, why she has been chosen by God, and learns to stand her ground and be the strong woman she is meant to be. I started this book and I COULD NOT PUT IT DOWN. Literally! I read it in one sitting, in one afternoon! Rae Carson takes the reader on an emotional rollercoaster, from beginning to end. This book has it all, from battles, to prophecies, to kidnappings, to a budding romance, to KINGS, and so much more! This book tied up all of the loose ends (that I cared about) so I'm not sure what the subsequent novels are going to be about, and I'm not entirely sure if I'll read them, but this first installment blew my socks off.
