The characters are forced to give up their cell phones once the term starts, so a majority of the book seems like it takes place in the past rather than in current day. The other thing that makes this a hard book to describe is the fact that it’s supposed to take place during modern times (there’s mentions of cell phones, video games, etc.) but it feels very historical. I can only imagine that the series will get more fantastical as the books progress. There are a few instances of possibly-magical influences affecting the plot, but these are never explicitly verified. The book barely has any fantasy elements in it other than the fact that there’s nobility involved. It is kind of an upper middle grade or lower young adult book, and though it is classified as fantasy, I have a hard time giving it that label. Undercover Princess is a bit of a difficult book to describe. Welcome back to my blog where today is day 2 of back-to-back blog tour posts! Today’s review is for Undercover Princess, book 1 in The Rosewood Chronicles. She must do everything she can to help Ellie keep her secret, but with school, the looming Maradovian ball and the mysterious new boy Jamie, she’ll soon discover that reality doesn’t always have the happily ever after you’d expect…Ī thrilling world of parties, politics and bad ass princesses, this is the first book in the brand new series THE ROSEWOOD CHRONICLES. Lottie is thrust into the real world of royalty – a world filled with secrets, intrigue and betrayal. Due to a series of lies and coincidences, 14-year-old Lottie finds herself pretending to be the princess so that Ellie can live a more normal teenage life. When fairy tale obsessed Lottie Pumpkin starts at the infamous Rosewood Hall, she is not expecting to share a room with the Crown Princess of Maradova, Ellie Wolf.
