The Princess and the Page

I really enjoyed Christina Farley Gilded series so when i saw she was releasing a middle grade novel about a magical pen and princess.  I knew i had to pick up a copy.  This story is meant for younger audience but i am grown adult and i read whatever catches my eye. 

I really like how if you have a fan of Nancy drew in your house and they exhausted all of those this a good next step.  It the perfect page length for middle school age easily read in a few days but interesting enough that you could easily read it all in one go.  I love the concept of word weavers who have the power to bring their stories to life with a magic pen.  Our main character ends up writing a fairy tale that not only wins her a trip of a lifetime but also changes history unknowingly.  

The story Christina tells about how she was inspired to write this story is a great treat as well.   Pull up a chair and get ready to play detective with Keira.
