Princess of the Midnight Ball: By Jessica Day George

I just finished a book called Princess of the Midnight Ball.



The back reads:



Princess Rose is the eldest of twelve sisters condemned to dance each night for the wicked King Under Stone in his palace deep within the earth. It is a curse that has haunted the girls since their birth- and only death will set them free.

Then Rose meets Galen, a young soldier-turned-gardener with an eye for adventure and a resolve that matches her own, and freedom suddenly begins to seem a little less impossible. To defeat the king and his dark court, they will need one invisibility cloak, a black wool chain knit with enchanted silver needles, and that most critical ingredient of all-true love.





It started out good and all, but then it started to get a little too full of magic. I love fantasy stories, but this book crossed the line for me in the magic department. So yeah, it was a good story line but too much magic and talk of witches.



The next book I'm going to read is called Freckles and I know this is a good book so I will be writing a review on it when I'm done. (don't read very fast, it might be a while.)
