![]() ![]() With the Redeeming, a ceremony where the girls are able to be Claimed for a price, Nisha is hopeful that her secret boyfriend will Claim her. She has plenty of friends, but none so close as the pack of wild cats that live on the grounds - FYI they speak to each other using telepathy. As Nisha arrived at the City at the age of six, she was too old to train at a specific house, thus she acts as a go-between for Matron, and also her assistant. ![]() ![]() Nisha lives in the City Of A Thousand Dolls where the girls live in different Houses – like Harry Potter – and get trained to be valuable servants and wives. FYI, I cannot really say anything about cultural authenticity as regarding this book because well, I am not an expert by any means. Nisha, the main character, has this pretty awesome coming of age where she learns secrets and must seize her freedom and her future in this Asian-inspired fantasy. While City Of A Thousand Dolls is not quite Eon: Dragoneye Reborn calibre, it is very, very good. Sometimes this is a bad life choice, but in the case of City Of A Thousand Dolls by Miriam Forster, the inside pretty much exceeds the outside in terms of awesomeness. ![]() Straight up, I will always read books that have girls on the cover between two giant lion statues holding weapons. ![]()
