Bracken, Alexandra Brightly Woven, 354 pgs. Egmont, 2010.
Language - PG (10 swears, 0 "f"), Sexual Content - G; Violence - PG
Sydelle lives in a small town where nothing happens--it hasn't even rained since she was seven. That all changes the day enemy troops come, a wizard takes her away from her family for a reason he won't explain, and it rains after years of drought.
I fell in love with Brightly Woven in the first twenty pages. I love the mystery element, the magic, Sydelle's stupid stubbornness that adds so much to the story, and I love Wayland with his many colored coats. But most of all I love the battles--both inner and physical.
