Princess Academy
by Shannon Hale
Review
***
I read this book because it was on the Sunshine State 6-8 grade list. For the first 150 pages it was boring. I was about to quit because it just was horrible. Then the book started getting to the climax and all of the action in the book was in one spot. I thought it should all be spread out between a 314 page book, but instead it was all within 50 pages. Luckily it kept you reading because you want to find out who marries the prince and what happens to the main character Miri. At the end it took a turn that you would never expect and everything works out between the characters. In other words everyone lives happily ever after.
