The Princess Trials
by Cordelia Castel
This book was a whirlwind.
So I can definitely see why this book is being seen as similar to the Hunger Games. They are both full of multiple young adults competing for a prize. The differences are this one is only girls, and they are all fighting for the hand of the prince.
So slightly difficult to get into. Starts off very confusing, like it wasn’t explained thoroughly enough for me. Even throughout the book I was still questioning the hierarchy of the kingdom.
Once you got past the 50% mark you get more into it. The trials/tests that they have to do seem a little extreme. And the cruelty of some of the girls competing is mind blowing. Overall it is an intriguing storyline so far. I’m still not sure why certain things have happened but hopefully it’s explained more clearly in the next books.
