5/26/2023 0 Comments Uprooted goodreadsI first heard about this book from Booktuber, A Clockwork Reader. Uprooted is an Adult Fiction, Fantasy book that is a loose retelling of Beauty and the Beast and is heavily influenced by folk tales and the Grimm fairy tales which definitely comes across when reading. Hey, guys! As you can probably tell already by the title today I am here with a review of Uprooted by Naomi Novik. For when the Dragon comes, it is not Kasia he will choose. She knows – everyone knows – that the Dragon will take Kasia: beautiful, graceful, brave Kasia, all the things Agnieszka isn’t, and her dearest friend in the world. The next choosing is fast approaching, and Agnieszka is afraid. But he demands a terrible price for his help: one young woman handed over to serve him for ten years, a fate almost as terrible as falling to the Wood. Her people rely on the cold, driven wizard known only as the Dragon to keep its powers at bay. But the corrupted Wood stands on the border, full of malevolent power, and its shadow lies over her life. Agnieszka loves her valley home, her quiet village, the forests and the bright shining river.
