I really really loved this book. I read it as an advanced reader copy and then went out and preordered it as soon as possible so I could own the actual print book. Such a cute story. Clean, creative, funny, entertaining. I'm a grown woman and still loved this young main character and want my kids to read this book.

Raven is a princess. Daughter of a princess who was saved from a tower by an evil sorcerer who fell in love with her mom and they escaped to the real world. She has a twin brother who is considered the evil twin because he can use magic and takes after the dad. Raven doesn't want to be a damsel in distress like her mother had been. She wants to be evil like her brother, who really isn't evil, and then we meet Prince charming who had been trapped in time by Raven's father after he was supposed to have rescued Raven's mom from her tower. Now Prince Charming thinks he has to come save Raven so he can get back to his magical world, but then we find out there are fairy godmother's who don't really do a lot to help but more to add extra problems and entertainment.

Overall, it's just really cute, with fun twists and creative license and bending and blending some of my favorite fairy tales out there. I never once guessed what was coming and was pleasantly surprised by all the fun things brought out in this story. Very cute. Perfect for young or young at heart readers. I highly recommend it.

The Rebel Princess Janice Sperry Books Reviews

The Rebel Princess
By Janice Sperry

This damsel is NOT in distress!

Raven Perilous is the Rebel Princess. No she's not trying to over-throw any sitting royalty. She simply doesn't want to be a typical fairy-tale princess just waiting for Prince Charming to rescue her. And kissing a prince much less any boy is just plain icky!

Raven has your typical problems - a mother who speaks gems and jewelry (literally), a father who is a wizard, a house that's moody, a twin brother who takes after their dad. And Raven has this habit of being a little bit mean and nasty when she talks to others and this has an unexpected disgusting side-effect (thanks to a fairy godmother).

But life is good until a prince shows up one day. One disaster after another ensues and the only way to lift the curse/spell is for the "prince" and Raven to work together. But is that even possible?

This is a fun mishmash of fairy-tales run amok as Raven tries to stay out distress and the prince tries to find true-love. But they are trapped in a land of enchantment and fairy tales, so the fun is just beginning.

This is a delightful and funny twist on your favorite fairy tales. And the twists and turns that ensue as Raven tries to return home will give you a great lift and several laughs.

This is one Rebel Princess you will love from page one. Raven may not be the perfect princess but she's one your preteens and tweens will relate to.

I was provided a digital copy of this book is exchange for my honest review.
Raven is not your typical princess and as much as I love princesses, this was refreshing! I loved the way Raven is so confident in herself and how she tries so hard to help herself before asking for help. She isn't helpless and meek at all. The love-hate relationship between Raven and her twin brother, Edgar, is great! They're so different from one another, yet really there for each other when it counts.

One day, a new boy shows up in school--Eric Charming and Raven decides instantly that he's her nemesis. I felt a little sorry for Charming. I loved his "true love." The twists added to the classic characters who showed up in the adventure were a lot of fun. Things can have more than one way to end and this really proved that.

This is a perfect middle grade book for those readers who love good, clean, adventurous fun.

Content no language; mild fairytale-type violence; no romance. Clean!
This sounded like a lot of fun and when the book came in the mail, my daughter immediately claimed it for her own so I had to "borrow" it to read it. (Haha, I really love that my daughter enjoys reading so much.)

Raven's mom is a princess and her dad is an evil sorcerer. She has a twin brother, Edgar, who has their dad's evil sorcerer genes and Raven got the adorable princess genes. She doesn't want to be cute, though, and works hard not to be.

She has a friend, Amy, who's new to the area and insists on being Raven's friend no matter what she says or does. Then, a new boy shows up at school--Eric Charming, who makes all the girls sigh except for her, since she decides right away that he is her nemesis. Charming opens Raven's eyes to the magical people who surround her. When he reveals who he really is, though, Raven is shocked. They set out on an adventure and there are plenty of twists and turns and overall fun!

I liked Raven! She's spunky, sarcastic and funny. She likes to take control of situations and sometimes it backfires on her. I liked her relationships with Amy, Edgar and Eric. There was some great dialog between all of them. I loved all the different fairytale references, too. This is a fun, adventurous read that I would highly recommend to middle-grade princesses everywhere!

I received a copy of this book to review. My opinion is 100% my own.
Very delightful non-fairy tale fairy tale, Enjoyed it very much.
Mixed up fairy tale for the modern world. This damsel might be in distress but she can handle it with a little help from friends and family.
I really enjoyed this read. The fairy tale elements were entertaining and it had a good rhythm. There were elements of the plot that seemed a bit too easy or convenient to be totally believable, (sometimes I had a hard time picturing what Raven's skirt was doing, could a non-magic sword whack off golden necklaces so easily without any danger to the wearer?) but it had its charm. I liked how it ended and all came together in a way hardwired for the main character. There's definitely a bit more that could be developed in future regarding various relationships, so I'll be I interested to see if there's ever a sequel. 😊
