A review by kementari
Heir Apparent by Vivian Vande Velde

4.0

Honestly, this book holds up.

I remember reading and loving this book when I was about the same age as the protagonist (14). I have been re-reading some of my favorite novels from my childhood lately, and this is still an enjoyable romp. It's super satisfying to see our main character get better at the game she's playing. Solid 4-star, enjoyable read, even as an adult.

(Spoiler that will only make sense if you have read the book: What do you MEAN other people give the ring to Sister Mary Ursula? How does that help??)
