I loved this book it was so well written it was so very good I liked the characters Alanna and Jonathon the most they were just written so well. I loved the story the way it flowed from start to finish I also liked the pacing of the story it was paced well. I liked the realism of how Alanna had to fight harder to become the knight she wants to be unlike the boys her age I liked the realism there. I really liked the relationships that developed throughout the story they were very interesting. So I would say I very much enjoyed this book and will be reading book 2 soon.
