Bitterblue by Kristin Cashore is the conclusion to the Graceling trilogy and I’m definitely late to the game on this one ;-). I listened to the entire trilogy on audiobook though and do recommend them if you’re like me and still catching up on this awesome fantasy series! One of the big things to kn...
I'm not going to claim this has any pretenses to literature, but I can't remember the last time I was so engrossed in a work of fiction. For the hours I read this, I just disappeared into the book. I loved the first book, Graceling to which this is a sequel. I'd recommend reading Fire, too, which al...
This was a strange book, childish and naive on one hand, impossible to put down on the other. YA is not my favorite genre, but I read Cashore’s first novel, [b:Graceling|3236307|Graceling (Graceling Realm, #1)|Kristin Cashore|http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1331548394s/3236307.jpg|3270810...
See my review of this book, and many more, at Tales from the Great East Road. It’s been eight years since the death of the monstrous King Leck, but the kingdom of Monsea is slow to heal. Leck’s daughter Bitterblue, now Queen, struggles to help her people – stuck in an office signing paper all day, s...
I thoroughly enjoyed the first two books in the Graceling series, and this one definitely did not disappoint. Everything about this book was brilliant – the characters, the plot, the mysteries, the world-building. I would highly recommend this (and the first two books) to anyone interested in fantas...
7/5/13 ** Cashore follows in the footsteps of Tamora Pierce in her ability to echo the political and social issues of our world in the events of her novel's world. In the mid-80s Pierce used Alanna's world of Tortall to explore the role of women in the spheres traditionally held by men and to expla...
Beautiful book. After so many disappointed reviews I was bracing myself for the worst, but Bitterblue was quirky, puzzling and utterly lovely.I love Kristin Cashore, and I could see how meticulously she crafted this dreamy, confusing world where queen Bitterblue lives in her tower and tries to make ...
Ohhhh I suspected Bitterblue would be my favourite because the setting (inexperienced ruler trying to fix a broken kingdom) is a trope I enjoy greatly and also because I was dying to know how Bitterblue was doing post-Graceling. It still surprised me, though, with the sheer emotional baggage, includ...
Took me a while to get my hands on this book. I read its predecessors about two years ago and, at the time, this book wasn't out yet. So I, needless to say, I had to wait until its release. I waited... then couldn't get my hands on it until this year, which killed me because I had enjoyed the first ...
