My current read is Princess Academy #3: The Forgotten Sisters by Shannon Hale.
Synopsis (from Goodreads):
After a year at the king’s palace, Miri has learned all about being a proper princess. But the tables turn when the student must become the teacher!
Instead of returning to her beloved Mount Eskel, Miri is ordered to journey to a distant swamp and start a princess academy for three sisters, cousins of the royal family. Unfortunately, Astrid, Felissa, and Sus are more interested in hunting and fishing than becoming princesses.
As Miri spends more time with the sisters, she realizes the king and queen’s interest in them hides a long-buried secret. She must rely on her own strength and intelligence to unravel the mystery, protect the girls, complete her assignment, and finally make her way home.
Fans of Shannon Hale won’t want to miss this gorgeously woven return to this best-selling, award-winning series.

Here´s my quote, from page 71:
Miri flinched. Poisonous snakes were silent, harmless berries were loud, and in the middle of it all, Miri could not tell what was dangerous.Does this interest you? Check back on Friday for my review!

Tuesday Teaser
It's a great series. I love the first book to pieces, could take or leave the second one, and this is the third one. I liked it better than the second one, but not as much as the first book.
DeleteThanks for stopping by!
I usually love Hale -- I haven't read this one.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, Beth! If you like Hale's books, you should definitely give the Princess Academy books a go.
DeleteI haven't come across this before. And now my curiosity is piked. Definitely gong to check this out.

I've not heard of this series before now, but the teaser is interesting. I'll have to start with book #1 though, which means waiting to find out what the deep buried secret is.
