“We are not the ones who are written into history. We are the ones who ensure history exists to be written.”

➽ One for All is fun, historical Three Musketeers retelling set in France! Tania de Batz is a disabled young girl who has been learning sword fighting from her father and is devastated when a violent attack leads to his death. He was the only one who believed in her and taught her capable, while everyone else in the village looks down on her for being the ‘sick girl’. Tania gets shipped off to L’Académie des Mariées, a finishing school that secretly specialises in espionage and has a rooster of girls who are trained to infiltrate high society! I loved the bond of sisterhood between Tania and her new friends, it was lovely to see how they accepted her for who she is. I also liked seeing her gain confidence in her new ability and ignore the ableist comments that some people throw her way!
