A review by mysticforestcrafts
Squire by Tamora Pierce

4.0

Pros:

This book truly shows growth, development and the hard work that an “average” person must put in to do the impossible and force change in the world around them. I love that it was done without changing the core of our heroine. She sees injustice and strives to change it only. It is so rare and so very important.

I love that Alanna and Kel finally got their moment together and while I will always wish that it was more, it was right for them.

Cons:

I understand that as a King, Jonathon must make more compromises than he would like and has to balance the needs of all. It is however disappointing to see that he has fallen apart from his friends of old like Alanna and Raoul. I know why he did with Alanna, but he can’t be just himself and his queen and be happy and healthy. I wish Kel would see that and urge change there too.
