So the princess trials were an incredible read so I eagerly looked forward to reading the princess purge and omg it was everything I hoped it would be and more！ It’s an entertaining and exciting read that shows us what happened to princess Briar whom we met in a previous book。 Set in the past we see her be betrayed and entered into the sickening and horrible trials。 She is a strong and likeable character whom you definitely put your all behind and hope against hope she will make it through。 Cann So the princess trials were an incredible read so I eagerly looked forward to reading the princess purge and omg it was everything I hoped it would be and more！ It’s an entertaining and exciting read that shows us what happened to princess Briar whom we met in a previous book。 Set in the past we see her be betrayed and entered into the sickening and horrible trials。 She is a strong and likeable character whom you definitely put your all behind and hope against hope she will make it through。 Cannot wait for the next book！ 。。。more

This is a phenomenal， action packed book that leaves you on the edge of your seat。 The twists and turns， and betrayals leave you reeling， and never knowing what is going to happen keeps you hooked from start to finish。 There were more plot twists and gut wrenching moments than I could count， and I was living for every second of it。 Briar goes from poised， protected princess， to a force to be reckoned with。 Never doubt someone who’s fighting for their survival， because if it’s their life on the l This is a phenomenal， action packed book that leaves you on the edge of your seat。 The twists and turns， and betrayals leave you reeling， and never knowing what is going to happen keeps you hooked from start to finish。 There were more plot twists and gut wrenching moments than I could count， and I was living for every second of it。 Briar goes from poised， protected princess， to a force to be reckoned with。 Never doubt someone who’s fighting for their survival， because if it’s their life on the line， they truly have nothing left to lose。 And Briar is proving that to the entire population。 I really hope there’s another book。 。。。more

Very Exciting YA book - Set in the same world as the Princess Trials but also very Different - This one almost has a Divergent twist to the Hunger Games style of book， Cordelia Castel has single handily re-ignited my love of YA books and this series has the potential to be even better than the first。After meeting Princess Briar towards the end of the first series i didnt think i was going to like her personality at all but i was so wrong。This is her storey along with Mauser's and i really enjoye Very Exciting YA book - Set in the same world as the Princess Trials but also very Different - This one almost has a Divergent twist to the Hunger Games style of book， Cordelia Castel has single handily re-ignited my love of YA books and this series has the potential to be even better than the first。After meeting Princess Briar towards the end of the first series i didnt think i was going to like her personality at all but i was so wrong。This is her storey along with Mauser's and i really enjoyed the character development and relationship dynamics plus the non stop full paced actionJust Briliantly engaging and entertaining from the very first chapter right until the last page！ 。。。more

The Princess Purge by Cordelia Castel is the second series by this author in this world and it certainly doesn't disappoint。 Although we've met this princess in the previous series， this book continues to see her grow and experience her own trials and face a potential grim future。 I loved this first installment as the pace was good and the characters and plot were all developed nicely。 Can't wait for the next installment。 The Princess Purge by Cordelia Castel is the second series by this author in this world and it certainly doesn't disappoint。 Although we've met this princess in the previous series， this book continues to see her grow and experience her own trials and face a potential grim future。 I loved this first installment as the pace was good and the characters and plot were all developed nicely。 Can't wait for the next installment。 。。。more

Having read the previous series by Cordelia Castel I was excited to read this spin-off。 Princess Briar was introduced in the last story of the previous series and she wasn't shown in the best light but this book gives her a whole different side and I have to say - I love her！ This book does happen in the same realm/world as Princess Trials but it does take place many years before。Her story starts years in the past as she is making her big debut into society at age 16。 We learn more about how she Having read the previous series by Cordelia Castel I was excited to read this spin-off。 Princess Briar was introduced in the last story of the previous series and she wasn't shown in the best light but this book gives her a whole different side and I have to say - I love her！ This book does happen in the same realm/world as Princess Trials but it does take place many years before。Her story starts years in the past as she is making her big debut into society at age 16。 We learn more about how she grew up and her "relationship" with her mother。 We also meet Mauser in the last book of the previous series， and he is more detailed in this book as well。 Briar has a story that is straight out of Hunger Games with a slight sprinkling of Divergent。 It is fast-paced， action-packed， and there are twists upon twists in this book。 It is the first in a new series and there is so much promise for the future！ I must admit that I loved this book more than I would have thought。 Finding herself making the ultimate sacrifice to save someone she loves， Princess Briar finds herself being used as a pawn by two countries。 When she learns that she was set up for failure， she is left alone and abandoned by her home and is left to fend for herself。 There are only a couple of people she can rely on as she is thrown into a fight for her life- one that is televised for sport。 Let the Princess Purge begin！The writing flows so well and the descriptions make it so easy to get lost in。 The characters are written brilliantly and they are so real that you soon forget that you are reading a work of fiction。 This is an easy read that you will not want to put down。 I would definitely recommend this book to fans of the Hunger Games， Divergent， and any other dystopian genre。 You will always be on the edge of your seat and left wanting， no needing， more！ 。。。more

Thanks to the author I got arcs for all the books in the original trilogy and although eventually they weren't exactly what I had been hoping for， they made me really curious to read this story。 Mostly because I'm quite certain that I will like princess Briar's story arc and character growth a lot better。 After all， we already learned in the originally trilogy that she did not stay cute and innocent and sweet and that she learned to navigate the harsh world she's living in。This book was from sta Thanks to the author I got arcs for all the books in the original trilogy and although eventually they weren't exactly what I had been hoping for， they made me really curious to read this story。 Mostly because I'm quite certain that I will like princess Briar's story arc and character growth a lot better。 After all， we already learned in the originally trilogy that she did not stay cute and innocent and sweet and that she learned to navigate the harsh world she's living in。This book was from start to finish very exciting。 I loved how we traveled to another country for this book， because although we met the people from this country， we've never seen what their lives really are like。 This book answered all my burning questions。 Without making it feel like info-dumps Castel shows us around。 We meet the people who are having a good life and we meet those at the very bottom of the food chain。 And we meet the landscape in between them。It's the plot that makes it possible to show us all the exciting， horrible， thrilling and sickening parts of this society。 The entire concept， a tv-show where people are hunted for sports， leads of course to a very action packed story。 I was however quite glad that it wasn't taking place in some closed off environment。 Therefore we were kept on the tips of our toes constantly。 Who could we trust？ Who is behind all this？ And what is everyone's end goal？And just like I'd hoped I really loved princess Briar as a character。 In this book we meet a girl who's grown up at court and knows that politics is a game。 However， now she's in another country the rules of the game have changed， but Briar is a quick study and willing to fight for herself and the people she truly cares about。 Although we know that she will not stay sweet and kind and caring， I surprisingly found it quite easy to root for her。 And I can't wait to discover what more is waiting for Briar in the next book（s）。 。。。more

This book was awesome。 I finished it in one sitting and then had to reread it as I could not get enough。 It moves along at a pace that makes for a comfortable read， has interesting characters that you will fall in love with and a story that you cannot get enough of。 This is a book that needs to be on your TBR list， you will not be sorry that you did。

I read this author’s other series， and I really liked it， so I was excited to try this spin-off series。 We had met Princess Briar in the last story of the previous story， and this one starts her story years in the past。 I find her quite an interesting character， and I like her even better than Zea。 We learn some interesting facts in this one which we didn’t know about in the previous ones， and the bearer of a couple of those is also an interesting character。 I know this is probably impossible， b I read this author’s other series， and I really liked it， so I was excited to try this spin-off series。 We had met Princess Briar in the last story of the previous story， and this one starts her story years in the past。 I find her quite an interesting character， and I like her even better than Zea。 We learn some interesting facts in this one which we didn’t know about in the previous ones， and the bearer of a couple of those is also an interesting character。 I know this is probably impossible， but I hope that character returns。 Vague， yes， but I don’t want to give out any spoilers。 Well-written and entertaining， I am looking forward to the next one。 I am not a huge fan of YA books， but this series might make me a fan。 Recommend。 I was provided a complimentary copy which I voluntarily reviewed。 。。。more

After reading the three books in Cordelia K Castel’s The Princess Trials， I was excited to learn she would continue with an additional series， The Princess Purge。 We meet a younger Princess Briar， who faces her own trials， as she becomes a political pawn。 This first book in the series， The Princess Purge， again takes us through harrowing experiences for young adults， as well as a deeper understanding of the family on the throne。 There is action， longing， misunderstanding， pain， and a sense of fi After reading the three books in Cordelia K Castel’s The Princess Trials， I was excited to learn she would continue with an additional series， The Princess Purge。 We meet a younger Princess Briar， who faces her own trials， as she becomes a political pawn。 This first book in the series， The Princess Purge， again takes us through harrowing experiences for young adults， as well as a deeper understanding of the family on the throne。 There is action， longing， misunderstanding， pain， and a sense of finding one’s self。 。。。more
