review 1: While the story does include a clever usage of the Princess and the Pea tale, it's not about that at all, which disappoints me as princess tests are very intriguing to me. The story is almost excessively straightforward: hear a rumor about being sold off as a servant, run away; promise a cloak clasp to save your friend, find the clasp.It wasn't a bad tale, but there was nothing outstanding about it. I wouldn't reread it.
review 2: This book was too entertaining and fun to read to be a bedtime sleepy story. I ended up staying awake finishing the book last night way past my bedtime!I liked that it was a princess story based on the princess and the pea but had many more exciting elements to it. Scary elves, falcons, girl with unknown family.Even though it seems
... morea bit predictable, it wasn't annoying or boring to get to those predictable parts but very exciting instead.SPOILER: The part that bugged me was the part where the main character and this other boy kiss. She's 12! Haha. Well I couldn't Even remember her age while reading and wondered if she was 10. No kissing boys that young!!!! Says mama bear.Such a cute story though. I loved it. less
