Valiant A Tale of the Ages.

One of my reactions to this book was that i connected so well to the main character. She was so normal to me and yet had an epic adventure.
I would recommend this book to all of my girlfriends because this is such a romantic and fantastical book.
The setting in the city is very appropriate to what's going on with the main character.
The story itself is awesome. There are so many twists and turns that happen to val on her journey to escape her normal life.
I love how Val becomes such a different person in the end after all that she had to go through.
The message of this story is that growing up can be  hard and that things can change in your life all on one simple decision.
This book is so addictive to me. I can read this  whole series multiple times and still go back for more unlike some other books I've read where up read it once and put it down.
I don't think that this book should ever be made into a movie because it would ruin the story. This is one precious book that should never be changed or lost.
I love Holly Black's writing. She paints a picture that leaves your real world just a little less bright in the end.
