Palace of Mirrors by Margaret Peterson Haddix

My review

rating: 4 of 5 stars
Cecilia has grown up knowing that she is the "one true princess" despite the fact that she lives hidden away in a small village disguised as a poor orphan. Sir Stephen, a knight, teaches her in secret and tells her of a future as queen. When tragedy strikes, though, Cecilia must immediately make way to the castle to claim her destiny. This book was clever! The twist near the end caught me completely off guard. I read Just Ella quite a long time ago, but was pleased to see Ella make an appearance in this book. I wouldn't call this a sequel but maybe a companion novel to Just Ella.
