Summary

Intrigue and danger increase as Princess Kazunomiya's once-sheltered life in 19th-century Japan changes in this latest addition to the Royal Diaries series by a Newbery Honor-winning author. Distributed by Syndetic Solutions, Inc.

School Library Journal Review

Gr 4-8 Princess Kazunomiya, 12, meets and falls in love with Prince Arisugawa, to whom she has been promised for the past eight years. Suddenly everything changes and she must marry someone else to increase the political power of the family. The plot is basic and timeless, with a mixed-up love triangle and an arranged marriage, but it is both complicated and enhanced by the numerous details and descriptions of a royal life in Japan in 1858. While accurate and informative, the story gets too bogged down with the details of historical events. Fans of the series will welcome this addition, but it is unlikely to attract new readers.
