Two Princesses of Bamarre | 
pickOne of my favorite stories from childhood, I could listen to this story over and over. GCL really knows how to deliver a good story, keeping readers rooting for Adi and she finds her courage, getting your heart pounding as Meryl fights her own battles, and bringing a classical history in with Drualt, this is a 5 star story.
pickI know this is something you might want to overlook thinking it‘s too kiddish but it‘s a great book. Read it years ago and it still beats a lot of books I‘ve read here recently to be honest.
pickStill love this book so much 😭 Compelling and devoted sister main characters, rich fantastical world, tricky creatures, a little romance, and a happy ending.

I don‘t quite know how to review this, so for now I‘ll just blurb it.
Addie has always stayed behind, allowing Meryl to be the brave and adventurous princess. But Meryl falls victim to the Gray Death and Addie must try to save her.
It isn‘t quite what I expected, and I hate Levine for the tears at the end. I didn‘t need that today!

My pick for Day 5 of #sizzlinsummerbooks is a longtime favorite of mine. Bugs are one of Addie's many, many fears, and the first one she conquers 💪🏼 🕷 I've had this book easily for at least ten years (and it shows with the taped spine and cover). I never get tired of this story 📖👸🏻 #julybooks #fairytales #princesses #bug
pickOne of my absolute favorites 💙 I've read it probably six times now
pickBest childhood memory ever. Me and my friends made a game of the story line and the fights over who would be addie were so over dramatic.
Like a lot of people on here, I'm not a big #reread fan, but there are two authors who were so special to me as a kid (#AnnMMartin & #GailCarsonLevine) that sometimes I just have to go back to these stories. I feel weird that my only rereads are kids books but they have such a special place in my heart (and they're easy to read so I don't feel like I'm wasting time I should have reserved for others!)👍
It was way more difficult choosing my #3FictionalCharacter than I thought it would be!
Here are the three fictional characters that I think best represent me
1. Princess Addie from The Two Princesses of Bamarre.
2. Pearl from Steven Universe.
3. Sailor Jupiter from the Sailor Moon anime and manga.
All three characters are courageous, helpful, and dedicated to their people, which is what I aspire to be everyday :)
pickThis is a book generally meant for 9-12 year olds but it is still amazing in my 20s. It's not the brave princess that goes on the adventure, but the timid one. Can't go wrong with talking dragons, either!
