I read Uprooted a few days ago and it has really stuck with me. Novik has created a stunning and interesting world in Uprooted and I truly hope that she decides to continue expand with future novels. That it takes place in a fantastical medieval Poland is just a great plus. There is so much culture and mythology from Eastern Europe to tap into, and its completely refreshing to see it here instead of the usual British/Western European fantasy world. 
 Agnieszka, our heroine, is not just a typical "strong" woman. She is obstinate and loyal, but also fearful and envious. It is great to see how as the book progresses, she also becomes more emboldened and confident in herself. Her relationship with the Dragon is oddly endearing, especially considering the age difference. But for those who do not appreciate much romance, rest assured, this book is very romance-light. 
 Honestly, I can only say that if you like an interesting lore, a confident and amusing heroine, and a slow-burn romance, then this book is definitely for you.
