Why read it?
1 author picked The Ordinary Princess as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This one is personal to me. I found this book when I was 8 and fell in love. Like: I have a tattoo from this book. And, yes, it’s about a princess, the very antithesis of a background player, but hear me out.
The Ordinary Princess takes place in a fantasy world that exists in conversation with the classical Western notion of fairy tales and fairy tale princesses.

From Maxine's list on for NPCs at heart.
