Why read it?

1 author picked Summers at Castle Auburn as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Not all siblings end up friends, and the evil brother who wants to steal the throne or the catty sister who wants to steal the boy are cliché staples of the genre. That’s what made Summers at Castle Auburn so refreshing: Corie and her half-sister, Elisandra, love and are loyal to one another throughout the whole book, and their relationship sustains the characters through their adventure and to the happy ending.

From M.C.A.'s list on scifi-fantasy about best friends.
