Alright, so if I'm being 100% honest, it took me a little while to really get into this book. There are books like Harry Potter, or Michael Vey that get you involved on page 1, but Shannon Hale books don't do that for me. HOWEVER, I know many people that pick it up and fall in love on the first word. So if you are more like me, push through because you will love it by the end!
Summary from https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/85990.Princess_Academy?from_search=true
"Miri lives on a mountain where, for generations, her ancestors have quarried stone and lived a simple life. Then word comes that the king's priests have divined her small village the home of the future princess. In a year's time, the prince himself will come and choose his bride from among the girls of the village. The king's ministers set up an academy on the mountain, and every teenage girl must attend and learn how to become a princess.
Miri soon finds herself confronted with a harsh academy mistress, bitter competition among the girls, and her own conflicting desires to be chosen and win the heart of her childhood best friend. But when bandits seek out the academy to kidnap the future princess, Miri must rally the girls together and use a power unique to the mountain dwellers to save herself and her classmates."
One thing I really appreciate about Shannon Hale is how clean she is. There is never any cussing or sexual things. Always very clean and I really appreciate that! I know my first remarks don't make the book seem very good, but honestly if you can get past the first couple chapters, I believe you will love the book :)
