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!
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!
