I liked the originality of the story initially, especially the potential for an interesting tale. I enjoyed reading the first half of this book and how the girls deal with the prospects of contracts being made for them. I did wonder why so many fathers would do so whilst they still remember their wives' deaths and especially as the all married these woman for love. Still, I overlooked that initially. Once Avie runs, the book falls apart for me, the story seems to make less and less sense, it doesn't flow very well. The ending is just awful and abrupt, this book literally doesn't have an ending, it hardly seemed worth reading it. It gets the 3 stars because the first half is quite riveting. A Girl Called Fearless. That book sounds amazing, doesn't it? It has a kicking title, and it has a wonderful cover. I really like it. Very pretty. Nice contrast. You can easily tell which type of readers they are targeting.Catherine Linka does a great job of evoking reader's emotion. Honestly, I was so upset at the book that I nearly strangle its invisible neck. The book does bring up issues on feminism and other such topics like politics and anti-government. Well, not exactly anti-government. We can just say that this book is a perfect example of what happens when the government gets things wrong. Eh... Near perfect. It is not exactly perfect. Besides, there is a more peaceful way of ending these issues in the book. Uniting all the girls together and marching to Washington D.C.But let's pretend those options don't exist. Let's pretend those options don't exist to the point that these people, these characters, need to turn to violence. That is what A Girl Called Fearless does.Basically, this book turns United States into a similar place to what some countries in the Middle Eastern are like. Oh, yeah. Girls can't drive. Girls stay home. Girls don't have education. Honestly, I pretty much figured out that I'm a feminist and that I really hate staying at home and not having an education. And I figured out that I can spend ten pages just ranting on the inequality and unfairness of the government in this book (which degrades woman to the point where they are just like cattle and property). It is as if the Woman's Rights Movement took a huge step backwards.Yeah, I'm spending way too much time ranting on anti-feminism. Where was I? Oh, yes. The book.Honestly, when it comes to Avie Reveare, I just want to bang her head and shout, "Kill them all!" But I like her, actually. She isn't a strong character at first, but she grows very well. I don't approve very much on her love interests, but... That is a much different situation, which is not as severe as the anti-feminism movement.Overall, A Girl Called Fearless is a great book. You might hate a lot of the characters (because they are all against girl power), but it is entertaining. For certain.And there is probably going to be a lot of debate. Especially among the girls.Rating: Four out of Five-ofpaperandwords.blogspot.com
