Amethyst: Princess of Gemworld by Shannon Hale, Dean Hale
2.0

Overview:
Amaya is a princess of House Amethyst in Gemworld. She is a troublemaker and brings her brother into her pranks. They have fun but one prank ends up causing their parents to make the decision of sending Amaya to Earth. Meaning she has no magic. Three years later, after settling into her new life with her friend, Autumn by her side. A prince from another realm pops up and brings her back to Gemworld. Little does she know, Gemworlds fate is in her hands.

Thoughts:
The art was stunning and I love the cover art. But the book just wasn't doing it for me. It wasn't that I disliked the book but it was bland. I didn't feel like there was any conflict that Amaya had to go through because they were so overpowered. Autumn was just there. She didn't do anything besides give Amaya company.
I liked the story line but I just thought there could have been more that happened in it.
