#FridayReads: The Princess Curse

I know it's Saturday, but yeah... here's my Friday Reads, woot woot!
This is one I just finished up and absolutely ADORED, so I just had to share it with you guys. All the info and links are below; if you have read it or do read it, definitely let me know what you think!

And if you're unfamiliar, #FridayReads is a hashtag meme on Twitter where people chat about what they'll be reading over the weekend. Bunny Cates decided to bring it over to youtube, (check out her video for this week here) and I decided to put my own spin on it by combining it with my previous Teaser Tuesdays. Thanks for watching!




ABOUT THE PRINCESS CURSE:

Twelve princesses suffer from a puzzling—and downright silly—curse. Ridiculous though the curse may be, whoever breaks it will win a handsome reward.

Sharp-witted Reveka, an herbalist's apprentice, has little use for princesses, with their snooty attitudes and impractical clothing. She does, however, have use for the reward money that could buy her a position as a master herbalist.

But curses don't like to be broken, and Reveka's efforts lead her to deeper mysteries. As she struggles to understand the curse, she meets a shadowy stranger (as charming as he is unsettling) and discovers a blighted land in desperate need of healing. Soon the irreverent apprentice is faced with a daunting choice—will she break the curse at the peril of her own soul?

  1. YES! This is seriously one of my most favorite books. I will admit that the 12 dancing princesses has never been one of my favorites, but the way it was presented in this story, and how the main character handled everything, I loved it!! I really, really, REALLY hope that there is a second follow up to this one because while it is not a cliff hanger per se, I still would like maybe a YA version of what happens next as Reveka gets older.

    This author has a really awesome sounding book coming out the "handbook for dragonslayers' and I will most certainly be getting my hands on that one.

    So glad you liked this one!!

  2. Definitely want to start doing my own #FridayReads vlogs. I've done the twitter hashtag a time or two but I love the vlogs you do, and the other tubers. :]

    Also, The Princess Curse sounds BEYOND AMAZING. Thanks for sharing!
