Bravely

Gonna be an unpopular review here. This story was cute, but for one, I didn't buy the romance. First of all, it's Merida we're talking about. The “I'll be shootin' for my own hand” queen, who established to girls everywhere that they dont need romance to be loved. Well...Stiefvater turned that on its head. And worst of all, the romance felt forced. The story itself was interesting in some parts, but the novel could've been about a character who wasn't Merida and it would've fit better. A little sad to see the representation Merida created going to waste here. Gorgeous cover though.
