2024 book 153

 Sherwood Smith's The Phoenix Feather: Redbark

This second volume primarily focuses on the younger two siblings--our protagonist, still in disguise as a boy, making her way as a "gallant wanderer" with her compatriots (some of whom are also hiding their identities), looking for a teacher, and having various adventures, and her older brother, held hostage as an artist at the imperial palace. (We do get a couple chapters of the oldest brother starting his army career.) As engrossing as the first one, and I can’t wait to see where things go next.
