I absolutely adore Tamora Pierce. She may have been the first really author that prompted me to fall in love with reading. She creates amazing YA novels with stronf FMC no matter what their strength takes form in. We meet Alanna in this one as she decides to take her future in her own hands by switching places with her twin, taking up residence to become a knight. Everyone else she meets falls in love with her though they think she is a boy because of her unique ways and loyalty to her friends and her moral code.
