Undercover princess5/22/2023 But, like these cartoons aimed at a younger demographic, Undercover Princess was rife with clichés, hanging plots, poor world-building, uninspired villains, lazy writing and absolute cringe. It really felt like I was watching Barbie Princess Charm School, but without the magic. Undercover Princess was entertaining, don’t get me wrong. Minor spoilers ahead~! Undercover Princess: Princesses, Castles, Evil Villains Oh My! And I feel really bad that I have to rate this so low. So, when I got a chance to review an ARC through the Kuala Lumpur Book Appreciation Club (KLBAC) on Facebook, I jumped immediately (it’s always a race to get YA arcs cause everyone wants them). Hi, book fam! Months ago, I requested an e-galley from Netgalley for Undercover Princess and was a little upset that I didn’t get a copy. You can always write a princess story but still be smart, unique and to use the most clichéd word on earth, interesting. But Avery, the title literally says princess and look at that synopsis, how could you have been fooled? Well, folks, I was. Take Barbie movies, throw in some Naughtiest Girl in School, a little bit of Gossip Girl, some Harry Potter, a sprinkle of Disney’s Descendants, some good old-fashioned Disney princesses and that’s what you get with Undercover Princess.
