Good morning everyone!
Today I am sharing my review for The Life and (Medieval) Times of Kit Sweetly by Jamie Pacton - what a fun girl-power book this was!
RATING: 4.25 ⭐
RELEASE: May 5th, 2020
REVIEW:
Kit Sweetly works as a wrench - aka waitress, at a local medieval-themed restaurant. She dreams of becoming a knight like her brother - and has the skills and knowledge to make it happen. However, the company has a guys-only policy for knights, and her uncle, the owner of this location, is not wavering from those rules. When she takes the place for her brother after he's injured, her identity reveal at the show leads to internet fame - and trouble. The Girl Knight must join forces with fellow wrenches to burst through the stereotypes, if they are not fired first.I really enjoyed this one - the girl-power vibes were a great pick-me-up, and Kit's go big attitude was relatable and easy to connect with. The breaking through of stereotypes was enticing to cheer for, whether it was based on gender or race, and was written very well. I thought the characters were good, and liked Kit's commitment to the cause, but first, her friends and family.
I think contemporary fans will rejoice in Kit's quest - to become a knight, and make a difference.
