Utterly delightful. One of those 'to be loved by all ages' books. I'd read Magic's Pawn and was expecting some rough and perhaps more 'period' views on things, but all told I thought this was stronger and much less traumatic than that book.
CONTENT WARNING: (no actual spoilers, just a list of topics) [spoilers removed]
Things to love:
-Talia. Poor little girl! We watch her go from downtrodden outcast to a strong, beloved young woman. It was very sweet, watching her grow up.
-The instructors. OMG! Adults who act like adults! People who notice children are hurting and do what they can to give them skills to cope, who listen and mentor and comfort. They were all good, caring people and we'd all be fortunate to have one person like them in our memories, let alone five or more! I loooooved that once Talia and her friends had found evidence of bad things, the adults acted on that. It never makes sense to me in books with teens who save the world where the hell the grown ups are. In this case, it was beautifully done, with them doing what makes sense to shelter their charges and reward their efforts.
-Talia's friends. AAHHH!! There are more than two girls! And they're all nice to each other! The only people who are at all mean are the bad guys! Everyone else is super chill and supportive. Boys and girls are friends! Girls and girls are friends! Boys show emotion! In case it's not obvious, I was very pleased with this. It's so rare for me to see in books at all, let alone books aimed more at younger readers, and it's so effing nice to have a great example of what platonic love looks like before kids get put on that track of romantic love. Hell, I am a grown up and I still like having reminders of how friendship should feel. Also, I like how there were different levels of friendship and that those levels changed at points throughout the book. Again, a wonderful reminder that you don't need to be everything to everyone, and a healthy look at accepting that we all mean different things to people we care about.
-Handling the issues. So, this is something I'd gladly give to a tween. Yes there's casual sex, but it's dealt with healthfully, with discussion of the difference between lust and love, the use of protection and all that. There's also coping with loss, recovering from trauma, finding 'your tribe,' the value of boundaries and consequences and so on. I really liked most of it, except for (minor spoiler but still a real one) [spoilers removed] which was definitely 'of its time.' I also love that gay relationships were prominent and NBD. It was clear that the characters were used to a little prejudice, but that they had a safe spot where they lived.
-The world. Be still my girlish heart. I was definitely a horse girl as a child. A telepathically linked horse that's faster, smarter and braver than all the other horses? One that picks me of all the people in the world??? I want to go to there. And a nice school and pretty people in a tough world. Castles! Intrigue! Libraries! Wild forests! I'm not sure what to say. When I say 'epic fantasy' this is the place I want to be in my head.
Things someone probably doesn't love:
-There's no plot. I mean there is, but the plot is very much secondary to seeing her grow up and make friends. The main character is important to the big moments in the story, but she's neither their cause nor their focus, for the majority of the story. This is a 'cozy' fantasy.
-It does get dark. Well, it's cozy except for some dark parts. I'd compare this book to Tamora Pierce, except that her books skate much further away from issues like molestation and forced marriage. This is the darker version of the Lioness series.
I thought this book did exactly what it set out to do, and it was a nice palate cleanser from some heavier books. I'd recommend this to most people who like epic fantasy and likely even give it to my younger friends, as long as their parents thought they were ready for it.

Or the Breakthrough, which brought the Othersiders and magic through to the world.
