In fact, Dorthea would rather give up being the crown princess of Emerald and the accompanying perks ― the Glenda Original ball gowns and the Hans Christian Louboutin heels ― than marry that imbecile. For one, she’s “completely princed out” and forced to marry the brooding prince Kato. Our main character, Dorthea, is at the center of such chaos.

I found such a “clean” novel a week ago when I read Spelled Betsy Schow’s book is the epitome of a clean read, the epitome of the funny, adorable, and age-appropriate novel. (Tbh I’m still looking for books without intense kissing scenes…) Unfortunately, other than Ally Carter and Jenny B. My biggest struggle in middle school was finding “clean” YA novels, those rare books without any swear words, intense make-out scenes, or deep existential questions. ![]()
