The Secret Princess by Melanie Cellier
4.0
I think this is my second book about The Goose Girl and I'm hoping it wont be my last. There's just something about retellings that makes me feel all happy and pure inside. Even if they give me characters to despise or love - I enjoy it all.
That being said, The Secret Princes was a delight to read. I mean devour because if I'm being honest here - I couldn't put it down. In it, you will meet Princess Giselle. She is on her way to visit a kingdom, and meet a prince, when her crew is under attack. Luckily for her, she has a guardian angel (of some sort). Her horse Arvin. Without him, I don't know if I would've gotten my comedic relief. He was downright hilarious and honestly.. Giselle should never question him.
Just like most books, this one has some twists, turns, and betrayals flying around. Some were pretty easy to spot and other's blew my mind a little bit. Just know that I really enjoyed this book and plan to dive into the next one. Only because I really want to know what happened to the other girls from the beginning and what their own adventure will look like.
