review 1: I don't know why, but I seem to have a thing for two books in one for so,e reason. But really this was a great. I have to confess I didn't realize that there were two other books before these two, but that didn't affect me when reading this book. It actually made it even better and the book basically recapped what happened before, so it was okay. This was a really good book and I loved every part of it. The plots, the characters, the twists and turns, and lastly the ending. The first book Dueling Princes was really good and gave me a feel of the characters and what they were like. The characters were hilarious and I wished most of them were real because I would want to be friends with them. They were nice to each other and Calypso was fifteen and she already had a boyfrien... mored who was prince of England. I know it's justo a book, but really. She was my age and she was able to do all these things. The one thing I didn't like was there was some things that weren't realistic. Like there fifteen and they are already drinking. Plus the nuns at the school weren't like other nuns, they drank too and let the kids basically get away with it too. But anyway, other than that it was really funny and I loved Calypso's personality. The endings in both books were great too. But I wished that in Dumping Princes, I would have known who she wanted to really be with. I liked Freds but Malcolm was good too. The ending just left off with Calypso not knowing who she really had feelings for, but at least she was happy and all. She would always have Freds and Malcolm who will be her friends. So all in all, this was a great double feature and if there are other books in this series I will loo coward to reading them. I will also read the first two, you can never get enough of Calypso Kelly and the rest of her friends in this series. Enjoy!!!!!!
review 2: I read a Royal Match a few months ago but I remember really enjoying it. When I heard there was a sequel I had to read it. I started the book and got through approximately 60 pages, by then I couldn't continue on reading. I rarely do this even if the book is terrible but I found it just irritating. I like how in some books if you haven't read the last one the author puts in little hints of what happened previously but here it was like A Royal Mess was a whole new book. I found the main character Calypso irritating and to dramatic for my tastes. That's pretty much why I found this book a one star. Maybe if I had read both books closer together I would've liked it more but doing it my way I simply didn't. less

It was long but it was still slightly humourous with an open ending with a lot of questions.
