Twice a Prince - Sherwood Smith I liked this book, but the repetitive formula used in half of Sherwood Smith's books thus far, of the prince/hero having pretended to be a fool/ dandy for years and years but ultimately being good and awesome and very intelligent and having a good sense of humor, begins to become a little to predictable. Need to change it up. Like SENRID. Cannot wait to hear more on that story front.

Yet I digress. Apart from wanting a great deal more backstory and more relationship time, Twice A Prince picks up right where Once A Princess left off and brings us swiftly along our way to the end, which was a bit rushed but still satisfying. Unlike the The Trouble With Kings which had giant lack of conflict resolution. Some of it does not make a lot of sense and other things are simply underdeveloped, but I love Sasha's voice and the fact that Sun/Atanial still gets to have this major role. I just felt like we lost some of the fun from part one that came from the comparisons between life on Earth and S-D... Hmm.

But Math and Sun get to be together and despite everything Sun was not going to accept Canardan's advances. Speaking of which, they developed him enough that his death was truly sad. And I loved how Jehan and Sasha get their "happily ever after" and Sasha gets to be a pirate before settling down to ruling a kingdom. I can see them being a very unconventional pair of rulers:) Just wish we got to see them together more, bantering. Oh, and we got a cameo from Sven Eric and co.!

Anyways, a lot of fun, if underdeveloped and worth a read.
