Grave Mercy by Robin LaFevers




I just read this book yesterday, and it was so good! Kind of Dark Ages Altered History Fantasy Action Romance. (If there is an actual named category for books like this, let me know. Otherwise, I will just keep making up my own category names....) I love on amazon how it recommends books for me based on other books I like. This was a recommendation that I was glad came my way through internet profiling. I like tough girls, even though I am not one, and Ismae is definitely tough, although a bit damaged. One reviewer on amazon said it perfectly when she summed it up, "Killer. Nuns." What else do you need to know? Warning: This is not appropriate for children or younger teenagers. There is violence (The trilogy is called His Fair Assassin...) and some intimate scenes.

Rating: 9/10
