Alana: The First Adventure by Tamora Pierce
Alana of Trebond is no ordinary girl- her dream is to become a knight. So she disguises herself as a boy and begins training as the palace King Roald. Alanna quickly finds out that the road to knighthood is not an easy one, but her skills and stubbornness help her become friends with Prince Jonathan and his followers. At the same time, Alanna marks an enemy of the prince's uncle, the overly charming Duke Roger.

I have not gotten far into this book but I am going to try reading it because it is a different genre than I usually read and it would be a good change in my reading habit's. I hope that this will be a book that I try to finish for a change; I haven't finished a book in soooo long!
ReplyDeletewhy did she disguise herself as a boy? Could only boy's be knights?
ReplyDeleteWhen she makes all these friends, do they think she is a boy or do they think she is a girl?
This kinda sounds like me!! The character in this book always strive to achieve things that he wants no matter what she has to go through.
Do you think this book relates to you in any way? How far have you gotten in it?

ReplyDeleteI have read this book and really liked. She is a great author. I have only read this series of hers but I know she has a couple others that I want to read some time. The book gets better the further you get into it.
