MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK WITH A STRONG LEADING LADY

Furyborn by Claire Legrand will have TWO fierce ladies front and center, so I am pretty stoked for this book!

Furyborn (The Empirium Trilogy, #1)

I Tag…

Anyone who has not had the chance to have a go at this! (But I think literally everyone has already done this and given amazing answers!)



That’s it for me! I know there are a lot of repeats on my list! Frankly, I just have not read enough! There are so many ladies from books on my shelves that I wanted to add, but I haven’t read their story yet, so really I can’t judge their ferocity just yet! But I look forward to it!

As someone who has never been particularly physically strong, or snarky-strong, it’s so important that this tag was created to showcase the other strengths! So thank you again to Krysti!!

Let me know what you think! What is/are your strength(s)? Who are your favourite YA Heroines? What fierce lady inspires you? (Real or fictional)

Happy reading!

  1. shazi is one of my favorite heroine as well as cleo! shazi is smart and witty and independent. i was fascinated by her through the whole doulgy. she truly inspires me! cleo is persistent and strong as well she never gives up and always saves herself without waiting for someone.
    there are a lot of strong female characters that truly inspire me which i’m so grateful for.

  2. Ahh I love your answers for this!! Inej, Nina, Kestrel are some of my absolute FAVOURITE characters ever, they’re all so strong in their own way and I love them. 😍❤️ I really want to read Blood and Sand, Attia’s character showed up so many times! She sounds like such a great character. 🙂
