“Well, it’s your name if it pleases me or not.” “Jerrol, as it pleases you, my lady.” And again the bow. The first part really does remind me of Tamora Pierce’s Alanna or Robin McKinley’s Blue Sword, perhaps with a little Ever After movie thrown in. Because, well, that’s just kinda how it works in my head. I hope you will forgive me if I review it by comparing it to a lot of other books I love. I really enjoyed this book and have reread it a half dozen times since then. I picked it up back in 2014 from a Goodreads Recommendation List “Books to Read if You Like Tamora Pierce” or something similar. I, however, always read it is one book (albeit in two parts) so that’s how I’ll approach it. So this last month I chose Crown Duel by Sherwood Smith which is actually an omnibus of two shorter works. Hello Gentle Reader! Notice I have NAMED the book group? Henceforth we shall be known as “Coop de Book” kind of a play on Carriger Pigeons.
