Books like The Foretelling

My first Alice Hoffman read, yay!The Foretelling was a good introduction to Alice's writing style. This is a quick, standalone YA novel that follows the life of Rain. Rain has a big role ahead of her: Being the new queen of her Amazonian tribe. Her birth mother is the current queen but wants nothing to do with Rain's existence. She prepares for the biggest fights of her life, while also, craving for peace. Although Rain herself was interesting to read about, the other characters in the novel felt a little... faded. There wasn't much development and I struggled to visualise the world in which the story was set. This was also a women only tribe and the last 30 or so pages where Rain has to make a tough decision, was very hard to read. I did enjoy Rain's passion for horses though!
