Rae Carson's The Girl of Fire and Thorns
Carson has written a new book focusing on one of the secondary characters in this series, but since I didn't remember who that character was, I decided I had to reread this trilogy for CONTEXT. I like this series a lot though (aside from the fatphobia issues, which really bother me), so no complaints here. It centers on a teenage princess, being married off to a foreign king and having to navigate court politics, while also trying to figure out what her destiny is (because she has a special God-given destiny). Which sounds like the cliche of all cliched YA books, but Carson makes it work. Again, aside from the fatphobia. Meh.
