Saga continues
The story continues to stay fresh and full of twists and turns. Characters continue to be developed and I am very much looking forward to reading on. The story does not get boring at all and you will continue to root for Zea.

A fine ending
This was the final book in the three part series of the princess trials. I enjoyed seeing how Zea developed into a confident and strong woman but sadly Prince Kevon stayed the same. I, like some others, would have liked to have had more of the other characters from the previous books other than just the small role they played. All in all I will continue to read on.

The best description for this book/series in 10 words or less:
"The Hunger Games meets The Selection."
The concept of the novel/series is really interesting. It is basically a twist of The Selection and The Hunger Games. I thought the execution of this was done well enough.
The characters in the novel were an interesting mix and was a perfect mix of The Hunger Games and The Selection
Zea Calico reminds me more of a Katniss Everdeen as she is a rebel heart but her motivations are similar to America Singer. Zea is a bit on the naive side and is fueled by both anger and a desire for change.
Ryce Wintergreen reminds me very much of Gale Hawthorne. He's a born leader and encourages Zea to fight for what she believes in. He does come off to be a little manipulative, and I wish there was more characterization on him.
Prince Kevon doesn't remind me too much of the characters from The Hunger Games and The Selection. The closest association would be Prince Maxon simply because he seems to be taking this whole Princess Trials thing seriously as he tries to find his wife and future queen. I am looking forward to more of his characterization in the upcoming books.
This book felt a little bit difficult to stay focused on. It got lost mid-way through and struggled to get back into the story. Some of the plot was a little bit all over the place so it was sometimes hard to keep track of what is going on. The cliff hanger makes me want to keep reading on despite some of the struggles of staying with the book in the middle of it.

It's where the hunger games meets the selection. It does border a bit on the young adult side but not so much that I didn't enjoy it. I will say it's hard to understand how Zea is so attached to Rhys because you really don't get to know him at all in this first book. I enjoyed all the characters and the story keeps moving along. Looking forward to book two of the series.
