** spoiler alert ** 
 okay ... where do I start? When I picked up this book, I had so many expectations - I was so sure it would be good, but let's be honest. This is one of the most stereotypical and drab books ever. It has so many plot holes I'm surprised it's not falling apart. 
 We have the female protagonist who think she's better than the others just because she prefers Skakespeare's "What You Will" over "Romeo & Juliet" (seriously, who cares). Oh and of course we have the love triangle. But let's get back to the main protag; Sasha Lawson, has to be the dullest and most tedious person ever. And she cries ... like all the time. Like 99% of this book is her crying over the most random things ever (like because of her allergy .. seriously get it together gurl). She's also very shallow and doesn't seem to have that thing called common sense .. or any other sense. 
 No let me explain: We meet her in a book store where she's reading Shakespeare (clicheeeeeeee) and that dude Grant comes up and chats with her. And OF COURSE he's her longtime crush (fyi, this is the first time ever he has spoken to her) and guess what - he wants to go prom with her. She agrees (of course she doesn't get suspicious bc the dude is hot and who cares right). And on the same evening as the prom Grant - who happens to be this other dude Thomas - kidnaps her and takes her to this parallel universe called Aurora. Sasha happens to be the "doppelganger" (analog) of the country's princess, duh. So they need her to "become" the princess, till they find the real Princess (most stupid plan eveeeeer). There's alot of political stuff going on, some intrigues, some drama (the only interesting stuff apart from the whole parallel worlds stuff). So Sasha plays along because why not and the next hundred of pages pretty much nothing happens, except her developing the worst kind of Stockholm syndrome ever (we should rename it and call it Sasha syndrome cos that girl is mad) and crying every ten lines. As if this wasn't bad enough, let's enter a second dude: Callum, the prince from the hostile country who's supposed to marry the Princess so there can be peace (but like it all happens in modern times ... what the hell). Completely unnecessary love triangle happens. Than more boring stuff happens. And the book ends on a wannabe cliffhanger. ... 
 The story had potential. The idea of the plot would've been interesting if it wasn't for the boring main characters. Let's not even start on Sasha. Juliana (the princess) is a selfish brat who only thinks about her own skin and betrays her country, Thomas is more relatable than those two, but he's still a jerk. Callum was unnecessary. Juliana's stepmother, who popped a couple of times, was the most interesting one of them. The story was predictable. Way too many plotholes. Tbh, I spent more time reading stuff out loud to my sister and cracking up than actually reading this. This was like ... stereotypes stucked into a book and we're supposed to enjoy it. I really tried to like it. I did. But I had already wanted to stop reading after 20 pages. But I'm stubborn and don't like giving up on things. So I tried really hard. But this just wasn't for me. Sorry.
