Hello!

Title:
Grave Mercy. {the series is His fair Assassin}
Author:
Robin Lafevers
Other books in series:
It is a trilogy. Though the third book has not been finished or released yet but here is how it goes so far.
Grave Mercy
Dark Triumph

Genre of the book:
It is a Historical fiction novel.
Anything I should know first?:
In this book it does have mild cussing for they are in the medieval times. It also may have some scenes fit more for readers who may read PG-13 novels.

Summary
Seventeen-year-old Ismae escapes from the brutality of an arranged marriage into the sanctuary of the convent of St. Mortain, where the sisters still serve the gods of old. Here she learns that the god of Death Himself has blessed her with dangerous gifts—and a violent destiny. If she chooses to stay at the convent, she will be trained as an assassin and serve as a handmaiden to Death. To claim her new life, she must destroy the lives of others.

Ismae’s most important assignment takes her straight into the high court of Brittany—where she finds herself woefully under prepared—not only for the deadly games of intrigue and treason, but for the impossible choices she must make. For how can she deliver Death’s vengeance upon a target who, against her will, has stolen her heart?

Just finished the Half Blood Prince, the sixth Harry Potter book and I must say it was the slowest of them all. The third was a bit boring but this one sort of dragged on. Don't get me wrong I loved it! Bur not as mug as the fifth or fourth :3

Right now, reading The Chronicles of Narnia (finally!), City of Bones (also finally!!), Chosen (House of Night) and two danish-to-norwegian books. Not reading all of them at once, just reading first pages and then finish one of them.

Finally started borrowing books from my local library X) They don't have a big selection of YA/Fantasy/Sci-Fi there, but I think they've started getting in new books!

I just started reading the Longmire books. It is a series of thirteen books. So far there is only nine. Anyway... I love the first one.
The Longmire series is more for adults but the show is based on these books. The Longmire series is a group of mystery novels. They are very well written. So I guess what I am here is to ask, has anyone else read the Longmire series besides me? I am still on the first book but so far I am in love with the book.

I always thought I might be bad
now I'm sure that it's true
cause I think you're so good
and I'm nothing like you.
Look at you go
I just adore you
I wish that I knew
What makes you think
I'm so special?
