One of the few elements that I enjoyed about this book is that the story is set in a very sexist world that also seems to treat its children as easily cast aside. Unlike a couple other books I've read this year, though, the main character is a young girl who chooses to go against societal pressures to make her own way in the world and not just accept her "fate". The girls in this story have backgrounds and character traits and physical descriptions. They're not just decoration or plot points along the way.
Overall, I didn't really like Scrapplings. However, I didn't hate it either. I think it deserves a chance if you truly love Fantasy, especially Fantasy involving dragons, or if you're tired of reading male-centric trope filled quest narratives. This isn't for you if you prefer fast(er) paced books, and I wouldn't recommend it for anyone who is new to the Fantasy genre.… (más)
