So fellow awesome blogger Sarah, from Words With Sarah created her own meme to help cut down on her TBR pile by, featuring a book each week that she will be reading that has been on the bookshelf for three months or more. I love this idea because that is definitely an issue I have with books sitting on my shelf for way too long.
My read for this week is:
Title: Defiance (Couriers Daughter #1)
Author: C.J. Redwine
Published: August 28th, 2012
Goodreads Summary:
Defiance by C. J. Redwine is rich postapocalyptic YA fantasy perfect for fans of Graceling and Tamora Pierce.
While the other girls in the walled city-state of Baalboden learn to sew and dance, Rachel Adams learns to track and hunt. While they bend like reeds to the will of their male Protectors, she uses hers for sparring practice.
When Rachel's father fails to return from a courier mission and is declared dead, the city's brutal Commander assigns Rachel a new Protector: her father's apprentice, Logan—the boy she declared her love to and who turned her down two years before. Left with nothing but fierce belief in her father's survival, Rachel decides to escape and find him herself.
As Rachel and Logan battle their way through the Wasteland, stalked by a monster that can't be killed and an army of assassins out for blood, they discover romance, heartbreak, and a truth that will incite a war decades in the making.
I have heard so many great things about this book and series, I love fantasy and I definitely think the covers make the series seem bad ass and the last book in the trilogy comes out in August so, hopefully I enjoy this one and want to continue. I also just realized that their is an image of a castle in her cape dress, awesome! Have you guys read this book? What did you think?
I've been wanting to get this book for the longest time! When you finish it you have to tell me if I absolutely need to buy it, because I feel like I do lol thank you for participating :)
