A+Tale+of+Two+Castles

Brief summary This book is about a girl named Elodie who journeys to the city of Two Castles to become a mansionier (actress.) Instead she becomes the assistant to a brilliant Dragon named Meenore. Meenore sends her on a dangerous quest in an ogre's castle. Disguised as a kitchen maid, she tries to fight an enemy intent on murder. After meeting many people, Elodie must induce and deduce who are kind, mean and trustworthy. In the end the annoying princess is the one who tried to kill the kind ogre. Why I liked it This book's plot was kind of hard to follow, but the book itself was pretty good. I would recommend it to anyone who likes fantasy, dragons, ogres or stories about medieval times.
