Reviews and Comments
I loved this book! It was a great re-telling of "The Princess and the Pea" and I did not want to put it down. The character were all really fun and I loved watching the relationship between the Prince and Violet as it developed. This book was really fun and entertaining with a wonderful story about love, friendship, and a little bit of mystery thrown in to keep you guessing.
