Review: Tess of the Road

Tess of the Road by Rachel Hartman
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Tess is constantly getting in trouble.  Many of the situations she has gotten into have been hidden from those outside her family, but when she punches a relative in the nose at her sister’s wedding ... her actions can no longer be secret.  She knows her family wants her to go to a nunnery to live out her days, so she puts on her sturdy boots and runs away, pretending she is a boy.  Tess has no grand plans with what to do next, but she is intent on staying free.

Tess of the Road is the first book in a series with the same name.  This is a completely new series that is set in the world of Seraphina.  These new characters can be completely enjoyed even if readers have not explored the first series.  Tess has some strange adventures and readers will learn many things about Tess as she discovers how her past can help her future.  The second book in this series is about to be released and I will be reading it very soon.
