Grace

So yesterday I finished Graceling by Kristin Cashore, wide eyed and gripping my seat at Starbucks. Other than the main character Katsa and the message the book sent about femininity and strength [I'm not going to be too critical here] that I bitched about in my last post, I actually really liked this book. I am starting to wonder if I will ever get to a point in my life where I'm no longer interested in books geared towards teenagers, but in the mean time I'm going to relish the fact that I don't have to worry about people reading over my shoulder during sex scenes.
I really liked that Katsa was a flawed character. She could have very easily been written into a Mary Sue, but her inability to control her grace and her insecurity about her future and her choices gave her dimension. I also really liked that this book offered originality in a genre that has more than its fair share of borrowing. The universe had the familiarity of high fantasy books but the way the magic worked made it unique. It was refreshing to read something new. It was also a very fun book with good pacing that kept me on my toes the whole time. BTW that is what I realized was OFF about Eaters of the Dead: the pacing. All of the action was condensed into like one chapter at the end and it just felt really weird, I dunno.
Anyways, I was looking up pics of different colored eyes online and I found out that Mila Kunis is graced. I wonder what her grace is??
