Oh my. I think I found a book that Zara and Bronte need to read... and I DO TOO.

Tooth and Claw, by Jo Walton
Another dragon tale that’s not your standard fantasy with dragons. This one throws a few interesting ideas into the mix: everyone in the book is a dragon. You see, the author reimagines a world where humans are, well, dragons. Scheming clergymen, petty nobility, heroic do-gooders – everyone is a scaly 15 + foot dragon. The narrative is well done in this one, with a similar style to say Jane Austen or even Lois Bujold. The premise sounds a bit strange when you first start into the book, but you soon suspend all disbelief as the narrative skillfully leads you into the thick of things. A great read and if you are sick to death of all the overdone standard fantasy tropes, this very well written, fresh take on the dragon subgenre will delight you.
