Bravely

This is not what we were all expecting and certainly not a Disney story. It was a worthy story of love, family, responsibility and of course, magic. It was very serious and there was a great deal of what is supposed to be “natural” destruction so everything can be reborn.I thought it was somewhat confusing, unless you’re good at following the pulled out of the ether storyline about the gods the cause the rise and fall of human society.I gave it four stars for some kind of weird romantic ideas, even if I didn’t understand them. This was not the fun story I was hoping for.

For young adults this is a great book, for older adults it could be a good book. Well worth the time reading...

It’s been awhile since I’ve found a book that I couldn’t put down but this one is very well written and pulls you in from the first page in a huge Disney brave fan and this story stays perfectly true to the characters. Great read I couldn’t put it down highly recommend

I went expecting one type of story, but it was not an expected tale that I found. It was more intricate really. You get a chance to see what life may have been like in midieval Scotland. It was not a fun Disney romp nor a novel filled with Steifvater's witty dialogue. This was something that takes a little work to fill in the missing pieces of life, and why certain things happen. The ending is bittersweet, but filled with possibilities. I definitely recommend this book. Thank you!

Merida is my favorite Disney princess! To find a sequel to BRAVE is a real treat! It’s a beautiful book. I’m thrilled! And I’m 70 years old! Treat yourself to the audible version as well! Well worth the extra cost!

Love the art work but gonna give it as a Christmas present to my sister

A sort of continuation Merida's story? Yes, please!I did not expect it to be so ... heartbreaking and hopeful.A fantastic story... I'm so glad I read it.

This book was so good if you love Disney and mythology this is the book for you

I adored this book. Maggie Stiefvater is my favourite author anyway, but I wasn’t sure what to expect from this book. It blew me away. It is brutally beautiful and filled with poetic prose and stunning imagery. I don’t even think you need to be a Disney/Brave fan to enjoy this. The character development throughout is perfect and Merida is still the same headstrong, bold young woman she was in the original Pixar movie, but with added depth and perspective. It’s just beautiful, and you should read it.

I absolutely love Meridas wild character, and this book was such a fantastic capture of who she is and how she lives from moment to moment. I loved the style and the depth of this book, the scenery is brilliant and the historical research and attention to detail was incredible, this was one of those reads that really got the imagination going and left me wanting more when it was all done. So many emotions were between the pages and the way its written really brings the characters to life. I highly recommend this read, it will definitely leave you thinking about it long after you close the blook.

Maggie is a fantastic writer, I waited a long time and was delighted when I received my copy. As usual it's brilliantly written.

𝐎𝐡, 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐈 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐰𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠.I just didn't feel connected to anything in this book, which is pretty sad because I love Merida. I didn't feel anything about the plot, the characters... nothing at all.I won't be here recommending the book obviously because I didn't like it, it drove me into a reading slump and I thought I wouldn't be finishing it... I think I've learned my lesson.𝐁𝐔𝐓 if you enjoyed the other books by this author and if you like 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐯𝐞, this will probably be the book for you.

The book is another great piece of art of Maggie Stiefvater, I loved it! The packing was another story, all the edges of the paper cover are damage in a way... I bought a few books before from here and it's never happen before. 🥺🥺🥺
