I am not a fan of fantasy, but Graceling by Kristin Cashore has made the short list of fantasies I have enjoyed. This was a wonderful adventure that I was able to put myself in and get lost. Every time Katsa overcame one obstacle, another one took its place. It was very exciting. The characters were all wonderful and interesting. The relationships between the characters came off a little shallow, but by the end of the book my eyes were damp at the thought of the main characters not getting their happily ever after ending. This is a great young adult book and I really liked it.
