Margaret Peterson Haddix : Palace of Mirrors


STUPID cover. AND the 1st inside panel should note that Ella (from Just Ella) returns in this text--not on the back panel that I read when I was 3/4 of the way through trying to sort out if the Ella was MY Ella.
Really interesting read, the book had an unpredictable ending (I was guessing until the last few pages), but the heroine is not as strong as I saw Ella. She seems to whine a great deal about her "rightful" place as the queen, but it is essential to her character's predicament. I still appreciate this book. I just miss Ella...she and Jed still are not married! :)
