I reread Graceling and Fire. I loved Graceling so much on reread and Fire is, as always, kind of heartbreaking.
BUT I was thinking about Lienid rings, and thinking about choosing to remove a family ring if that person was, basically, a total dick.
ALSO, I just want to shout-out to the author for what a great job she did with her heroines, and how they're so different and all skilled in different areas and all have different weaknesses and flaws. Seriously, the heroines go warrior, healer, queen.
