Content: Language: G; Mature Content: G: Violence: G.  

BUYING ADVISORY: EL, MS – OPTIONAL  

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE  

Princess Annie is excited for her long awaited wedding day to Liam, but everything that could possibly go wrong happens.  Annie and Liam end up on a quest to save the castle against a magical wizard, instead of celebrating their marriage.  They scour the kingdom looking for the help of the powerful fairy Moonbeam, and uncover the plot that is causing the attack on Annie’s family’s castle.  

I usually love the Wide-Awake Princess series, but half of this book was Annie and Liam going from place to place, running into characters from previous books, and it got boring fast.  The second half of the book was the best part of the story and I loved it, but I don’t know if readers will keep reading long enough to get to the good part.  The mention of characters from the other books was also distracting to this storyline because it had been awhile since I read them and couldn’t remember their story.  Overall, not the best book in the series, but I have enjoyed the series until now.
