Guest Review: Tuesdays at the Castle and Wednesdays in the Tower by Jessica Day George

Tuesdays at the Castle and Wednesdays in the Tower by Jessica Day George

Summary from Goodreads:
Tuesdays: 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.

Wednesdays: A castle that is constantly rearranging itself, and a young royal family sworn to protect it... Celie, Rolf, and their beloved Castle Glower are back in this exciting sequel.

Strange things are afoot in Castle Glower: new rooms, corridors, and even stables keep arriving, even when they aren't needed. Celie's brother Bran, the new Royal Wizard, has his hands full cataloguing an entire storeroom full of exotic and highly dangerous weapons, while Celie has her hands full . . . raising the creature that hatches from a giant egg she finds! Will they be able to find out what's making the Castle behave this way in time?

Julia's Review:

The first book in the series has a lot of intensity and has a lot of things that you don’t expect.  The second book is very unlike the first one in the intensity, but it does have a lot of twists and turns.  I really like these books and hope that the author writes more in the series.

Warnings: None

Julia read this book so obviously I would let her read it.  (Brooke)
