Graceling

I wasn’t going to read Graceling because I am way behind and have a huge stack of books I need to read so that I can review them. Or read so that I can finish my challenges.

But TW insisted Graceling was good. Really good. And I wasn’t feeling very well, so a serious non-fiction book about a GI doctor seemed like less than perfect reading for a stomach flu kind of day.

TW was right. Graceling was really good. Another strong female character. A strong supporting female character. Male characters that run the range of good and evil, some that are a combo of both. And of course, there’s the “Grace”. How those who are graced are treated. What types of graces there are. Very interesting.

*Duh. Just realized the reason we had this book in the first place is that it was a Cybils book. Too bad it had so much competition in that category.*

  1. I had it from the library and only got to read a Chapter before I had to return and I really did *have* to return because it was right before Chicago.

  2. i came in search of a nudge to get my booty reading again and sure enuf…mefinds denise reading yet ANOTHER book…can we just pause and say thank you for continuing to remind me that reading books is still doable inspite of how much online time our lives embrace?
    what are some of these titles of the stack that’s waiting to be read…esp interested in the ones that are gonna help w/ your challenges (tho you strike me as one who is never such).
