Valiant Ladies, by Melissa Grey, is a stunning story of love, mystery, and finding
yourself. Kiki is a rich girl who only wants to sword fight and be with Ana, she doesn't
want to be married and have to stay at home. Ana grew up on the streets until she
found Kiki. She now lives in a beautiful house and might soon lose Kiki. After Kiki’s
brother’s sudden death, the girls decide to find the murderer and the culprit of the other
murders around the city. As they search, they find that maybe they can do what they
want, be who they want, love who they want. I loved how these girls were real people.
Most of the story isn’t real, but these girls did exist. I thought this was a great book and
would recommend it to any teens who love self-righteous girls and sword fights.
