Princess of the Midnight Ball by Jessica Day George


SYNOPSIS:  Princess Rose is under a curse, which requires her and her sisters to dance with the sons of King Under Stone, who lives below the earth.  A returned solder, Galen, tries to discover their secret so he can rescue them.

AUNT SHARON'S TAKE:  A fun retelling of "The Twelve Dancing Princesses," although it wasn't really original in my opinion.  There was some violence and scary imagery, but otherwise, I think it would be well suited for teens, and even pre-teens.

RATING:  PG with Violence

AUDIENCE:  Teens

STARS:  3

BOOKS LIKE THIS:  Entwined, A Posse of Princesses
