I’m so glad there are still more to come and I can’t wait to read the rest. I love them both equally and I want to see them together (like, together, together) and I got almost nothing! Other than that, this book was exactly what I expected it to be: full of action, mystery and drama.
The only thing that didn’t seem right about this book was that Lottie and Ellie didn’t seem to have as many interactions as they did in the previous books. It is a very different book compared to the other two in the series but it’s just as magical and as entertaining. The change in scenery didn’t feel overwhelming, just really exciting (I guess it also helps that I’m part of the Fascinated by Japan club). New characters are introduced, including a cat (which was exactly what was missing in this series, to be honest). Lottie and her friends move there for the summer, to improve Lottie’s grades (I know, shocking, right?), and a lot of creepy, mysterious things start to happen. The Lost Princess is not set in Rosewood but in a sister school in Japan. The characters are more grown-up, they’re going through a lot and the setting drastically changes. I wouldn’t say it is the best book of the 3 (it will always be the 1st to me) but it’s the most different, the most changing. The Lost Princess is the third installment in the Rosewood Chronicles series and is probably the biggest surprise of the three. I’m just glad I’m now in my 20s and finally managed to find what I wanted years ago. I know I looked so hard for this kind of series and was always unable to find it.
I think I said this in all of my previous reviews of all the books in the Rosewood Chronicles but I really, really wish these books had existed when I was 13. But when long-buried secrets are uncovered, the lives of Lottie, Ellie and Jamie will never be the same again… The only solace they find is a secret group called Banshee who are fighting against the organisation’s hold. When Leviathan force them to travel to their beloved Rosewood Hall’s sister school in Japan, the threesome find that nowhere is beyond Leviathan’s long reach. Together they are attempting to stay safe from Leviathan, a group determined to take the princess for unknown reasons. Jamie is Ellie’s Partizan, a lifelong bodyguard sworn to protect the princess at any cost. Lottie is her Portman, acting as the princess for the public to shield Ellie from scrutiny. Published by Penguin Children’s Books (UK)Įllie is a rebellious princess hiding her real identity.
