Palace of Mirrors


Title: Palace of Mirrors
Author: Margaret Peterson Haddix
Rating: 10.0

Summary: Cecilia knows she's not just another peasant girl; she's actually the true princess, in hiding until the evil forces that killed her parents are vanquished. A commoner named Desmia is on the throne as a decoy.
Cecilia knows that it's time to take charge. Along with her best friend Harper, she flees to the capital city, determined to reclaim her throne and face the danger head on.
When Harper and Cecilia reach the famed Palace of Mirrors, the discover complications: Princess Desmia believes an intirely different version of the story.
My Review: Palace of Mirrors is a book slightly different from Haddix usually books. It's a lot more...fairytale than what she normally does. Not to say that she didn't put a completely unique twist on it. I love the relationship during the book! The characters in The Palace of Mirrors developed really well, people that you would expect to meet someday. In general I would say all of the Haddix books are good, but this is one of the best.
