So what are you thoughts on Princess Academy? I don't love much of anything I've read by Shannon Hale but my mom in law keeps telling me to try Princess Academy. I'm going to go by what you say because it looks like we have pretty similar taste in books!
ReplyDeleteI liked Princess Academy, but I didn't really like many other of Hale's books. I say read it!
