By E.D. Baker. It's an awesome series, three books (I think) Anyone read before?

If it's the book I'm thinking of then I personally didn't like it. If I read it when I was younger I probably would have loved it. I can't remember why exactly as it was last summer, but I remember being somewhat disapointed.

I've read all but the third one. I started that one, but lost interest for the time being. Time travel ploys do that, for me. Also, I didn't like the prince that much. Though I liked the books overall.

I'm not a big fan of princesses, but sometimes authors sneak something worthwhile in under the title (I liked the musical ONCE UPON A MATTRESS, for instance, which is all about princesses.)
Is there anything particularly neat about the series that might sway someone sitting on the fence?

It's a little snarky in places. There's more to it than the usual "Frog Princess" plots. Enough to extend to three books.

Or does this have nothing to do with 19th Century nonsense books? Snarky, as in sarcasm with a little more bite to it. Where did that other definition come from? I guess I'm not up on 19th Century literature. Not that that's a surprise. I be a fantasy reader, of mostly live authors.

I only read the first one. The first one was really adorable, so I would like to someday read the sequels.

THE HUNTING OF THE SNARK, by Lewis Carol, of Alice In Wonderland fame, is a long nonsense poem that ends like this: "He had softly and suddenly vanished away, for the Snark was a Boojum, you see." I'm fond of it.

CrownPrincessLaya I read that series too, it was alright... but the prince was sort of a dork and seemed... I don't know... kind of simple... That was my main issue with the books. The prince bugged me. That and the whoel time-hopping thing. I haven't finished the third book yet - the time travel sort of put me off. But I will finish it eventually.

I love this series, it's a break from the normal epic fantasy I usually read. ^^ But there's four books, although the fourth one you can only find online at this time (it's called No Place for Magic, if I remember correctly).

It's awesome. I wanted the big book that had all three from the book fair at my school, but my parents wouldn't give me the moeny. emo i think it's an excellent series and can't wait to read the next book. it's sad that her aunt got turned into a mean old hag and "broke up" with her one true love H-something-something ("H-something-something"= i don't know the name, but i know it began with an 'm'.) the prince and the princess shoudl really get together, even if the prince is a bit...eh...weird
