The prince and princesses didn’t come up with a elaborate plan to retake the castle that you might see in an epic fantasy novel, but instead acted like, well, kids. This didn’t occur with every chapter end/beginning, but there were a few. The narration at the end of the first chapter saying “Everybody loves Celie” immediately contrasted against the next sentence of Celie proclaiming “Everybody hates me” made me chuckle a bit. Transitions between certain chapters were quite well done and sometimes entertaining to read.In reverse, I loved how it gave characters it did like better, fancier rooms. Any castle that can shrink the room of someone it doesn’t like to be basically closet-size makes for a fun read.

She is smart, clever, and knows to trust the castle along with her own instincts. When it becomes apparent that the Castle doesn’t believe the King and Queen are dead, the three siblings hatch a plan to delay the Council’s tactics while looking for their parents. But throughout their scheming they forgot one important thing: Castle Glower. Using the pretense that Rolf is “only 14” and needs guidance they begin to try and take power away from him. Unfortunately, some of the Council members seem to have other ideas about how the throne should work. Naturally, one might assume the heir to the throne, Rolf, would take his place. In Tuesdays at the Castle, the King and Queen are on their way home from visiting their son graduate from the College of Wizardry when they are attacked and presumed dead.

Need a slide to get you from one room to another quickly? Castle Glower is for you, especially if the day is Tuesday. Oh! Who wouldn’t want to live in a magical castle, especially one that rearranges its floor plan or creates new rooms whenever it gets bored.
