Best friends, big fans, a mysterious webcomic, and a long-lost girl collide in this riveting novel, perfect for fans of both Cory Doctorow and Sarah Dessen; illustrated throughout with comics.

Once upon a time, two best friends created a princess together. Libby drew the pictures, May wrote the tales, and their heroine, Princess X, slayed all the dragons and scaled all the mountains their imaginations could conjure. 

Once upon a few years later, Libby was in the car with her mom, driving across the Ballard Bridge on a rainy night. When the car went over the side, Libby passed away, and Princess X died with her.

Once upon a now: May is sixteen and lonely, wandering the streets of Seattle, when she sees a sticker slapped in a corner window.

Princess X? 

When May looks around, she sees the Princess everywhere: Stickers. Patches. Graffiti. There's an entire underground culture, focused around a webcomic at IAmPrincessX.com. The more May explores the webcomic, the more she sees disturbing similarities between Libby's story and Princess X online. And that means that only one person could have started this phenomenon---her best friend, Libby, who lives.

This book was so good! It was unlike any book I have ever read; I mean the plot. It was amazing!!! I thought the plot was really well developed. It's basically a scavenger hunt. I thought Libby is intelligent. I mean who would have thought of what she did!!! It was amazing!!! Everything was amazing!! Libby is beautiful, intelligent, and very determined. I mean she is one of the most beautiful kids; she looks like a model.  Then there's Libby's best friend, the main character, May. She basically is the opposite of Libby. She can't draw, isn't the most beautiful person, and doesn't have a great life compared to Libby. May is brave, stubborn, and protectful. ( haha just made up a word ). Read the book to find out why. 

I give this book a 4/5!! It was amazing and unique. Literally never read a plot like this before! 

Hope you all enjoyed this!!! I really... really enjoyed this book!!! <3 ya!!!! BAI!!!
