Hey, look at who's alive! And with another book review as well! Amazing. Well, this is a review for the first book in the Lioness Rampant Chronicles, by Tamora Pierce, which is another beloved book series of mine.

Alanna wants to become a knight, her twin brother, Thom, doesn't. They switch places, with him going to the temple to study ...
Read my full review at The Book Bee1.5 starsAt times I questioned why I continued to read this book. Poorly developed plot, no world-building, and a seriously bratty main character has turned me off. In reading up on the other books in the series, I am very confident in my choice to abandon the Song...
