Tuesdays at Castle Glower are Princess Celie's favorite days. That's because on Tuesdays the castle adds a new room, a turret, or sometimes even an entire wing. No one ever knows what the castle will do next, and no one-other than Celie, that is-takes the time to map out the new additions. But when King and Queen Glower are ambushed and their fate is unknown, it's up to Celie, with her secret knowledge of the castle's never-ending twists and turns, to protect their home and save their kingdom. This delightful book from a fan- and bookseller-favorite kicks off a brand-new series sure to become a modern classic.

Princess Celie is the youngest daughter of a royal couple who reside in Castle Glower. Every Tuesday, the Castle adds a surprising new room. No one ever knows what the Castle will add next, which is why Celie loves the Castle. When tragedy strikes, the Castle must protect their beloved home from impending DOOOOOOM. I'm just kidding. Anyway, this was a Middle Grade book that I did not fully enjoy. I felt that it was just a little too predictable. I also don't like the princess and prince type of thing. I like fantasy, but this truly disappointed me. ~ifeelbookish
I did not like this book. This is because I am not really in to castle and prince and princesses thing. It was a quiche easy read though.
This is a great book for girls. I am enjoying seeing what happens in the castle. I like the princess in the story. I can't wait to see how it ends.
This book is just amazing. About three siblings and a magical shape-shifting castle trying to run a kingdom. I loved reading it. One of my favorite books.
Jessica Day George is an amazing fractured-fairytale genre author and this book is just as wonderful as Dragon Slippers. The characters are so quirky (and the castle is too)! A must read for fans of E. D. Baker and Gail Carson Levine.
It is about a 11 year old princess named Celia. Then when a normal typical day turns into a nightmare, a tragedy strikes, usually at the castle it's always a nice day, but this day it was a big no-no. DUN DUN DUN... Tuesday has to get everybody to team up so they could help the castle and help solve the problem. I really enjoyed this fun book. It was exciting, an easy read, fast pacing, and kind of inspirational. Inside the book, not literally, but inside there are couple of other themes and one of them is no matter how old you are you CAN STILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE! And I liked how the author put it up that way, you can make a difference, whenever if you try hard.
This was a really good book! It was cool. The princess doesn't act like other princesses, which makes it interesting. It talks about a princess who has to go save her castle, which is sick. She is a very intelligent princess. It is very original, that's for sure!
