Tiadone has been forced to live her entire life as a female accepted as male in her community in order to survive as a firstborn child. But when she needs to pass the rites of manhood, she finds the Creator may have use for her feminine traits after all.

I'll be starting this early, since I need it for a different challenge.

(view spoiler)[wow. What a sad beginning. I can't imagine the pain that mother was feeling when they left her daughter to die and there was nothing she could do to save her, since her husband didn't want to "declare her male". I'm also a little surprised that that is what happened with Tiadone and that it isn't something the father did secretly, since he did declare her male... (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[Okay. Kind of a weird/different read. I found it interesting how her father gave her advice on ways to hide her womanhood -- especially once she starts her flow. I'm surprised he didn't talk to her about that sooner, but I guess he just kept delaying.

I don't like her "friend" at all. He just seems so mean! (hide spoiler)]

I'm finished.

(view spoiler)[This was an okay read. I liked how she saved her sister and how the bird came back to her, but still it wasn't that great of a story and I didn't love it. I hope you like it more! (hide spoiler)]
