Princess Ben by Catherine Gilbert Murdock

4.0

---

I was surprised by this story; Benevolence doesn't want to be a princess, and she doesn't behave like one in any way. She works on her identity and her projects to suit herself, and is therefore in the perfect position to deal with the threats to her kingdom that arise. Thrilling adventure make this a great suggestion for readers who liked Tamora Pierce's Alanna stories, or Tale of Two Castles by Gail Carson Levine.
