Representaion In Favor Of Books Dragonsinger (Harper Hall of Pern #2)
I won't go into depth as this is a book I've read several times since first encountering it as a teenager ages ago and there are literally hundreds of detailed reviews. One thing that inspires me about Dragonsinger, though, is that it doesn't follow the contemporary form of having everything go wrong for the main character all the way through until the end. In contrast, Menolly actually succeeds in almost every chapter--a victory for her shared with the reader--and yet somehow McCaffrey still made the drama feel genuine throughout.Rating Containing Books Dragonsinger (Harper Hall of Pern #2)

I love the atmosphere it describes, and would love to experience some lessons at Harper Hall myself... even though I'd probably be more likely to be one of the clueless girls (although not as cruel I hope) than Menolly.I love the lyrics that start off each chapter. Usually when books have lyrics or poems as
My favorite of the Harper Hall books! There's something so satisfying about Menolly, who went through hell in the first book, being treated like a princess, and shown around the Harper Hall. Getting new clothes, meeting new friends, finding out that her scarred hand will heal . . . just so satisfying!
Another great book in this series Menolly stands up to the bullies in Harper Hall while making friends for the first time in her life. The fire lizards are growing and starting to become useful in all sorts of unexpected ways.
Oh, Menolly, why didn't I know you when I was a teenager? Another book to add to the list of books I wish I'd read when I was younger, but I'm glad I discovered eventually.
In Dragonsigner Menolly finds herself at the Harper Hall. Beyond her wildest dreams and all the obstacles placed by her family, she's ready to a new new life doing what she loves - making music. Unfortunately, life in the Hall isn't all she'd hoped. Her possession of nine fire lizards doesn't make her popular with some, and like most novels of this type, Menolly finds herself dealing with the "mean girl" contingent. She has instructors who don't think it's worth their time to train "a girl",
