Book Review - The Runaway Princess by Johan Troïanowski

Photo credit - Amazon


Princess Robin has a knack for wandering away from her castle into her whirlwind adventures.  Robin doesn't act like other princesses who stay at home and follow the rules. Instead, she wants to go on adventures involving monsters, magical creatures, and pirates. Where will Robin go to next for her great adventure?

The graphic novel was a fun and entertaining read. I love the puzzles that were included in the book. I love that each adventure is whimsical and unpredictable. It's the perfect graphic novel for any middle grader.

Book Review - Mermaid Moon (Sunset Cove, #2) by Colleen Coble

Photo Credit - Amazon
Mallory Davis left her hometown over fifteen years ago after a tragic accident. She finally returns when she receives news of her father's mysterious death. Leaving her with no choice, Mallory returns to Mermaid Point where she faces her childhood sweetheart, Kevin O'Connor. Mallory believes her father was murdered and joins Kevin to solve the mystery behind her father's death. However, Kevin is wary of bonding with Mallory since she ran away from home and broke his heart. Will Mallory and Kevin be able to put their differences aside? Who murdered Mallory's father?

The novel had an interesting story line and was quite interesting for the first few chapters. However, the further I got into the book, the less I wanted to continue reading the book. I found the characters to be dull and the story to drag on. An interesting concept, but it didn't captivate my interest enough to want to continue reading the book.
