This was a fun book and light in nature. Great for a child that likes princesses and wants to also get a little bit of adventure thrown in. The kid nature does feel a little forced and cliched at parts of the story. It is also very predictable plot wise, but understand this is coming from someone that is obviously not the intended age range of the collection. For that age range, parents, I would recommend this title x1000. For adults though, probably best to hand it off to a kid in your family. They will get more from it.

I actually really enjoyed this book! I couldn’t put it down. Mega Princess is super cute and incredibly relatable despite being a princess. Mega Princess shows that a princess can be more than just frilly dresses and riding horses. This princess wants to be a detective and does so by finding her lost baby brother when he has been abducted. She demonstrates strength, good character, and poise in the faces of danger and adversity. She also will show students how to work with others in dire times that they don't normally get along with. She’s Fierce and fearless-just what girls need right now 💛

Okay so this is another one, with [b:Brave Chef Brianna|34228013|Brave Chef Brianna|Sam Sykes|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1489312525s/34228013.jpg|55281772], where the fact that this isn't an ongoing is CRIMINAL. It's got snarky friendships! Shape-shifting! Adorable puffer fish in love with a hedgehog! Jail breaks! The greatest detective in the world! And then it just ENDS. Thankfully with more of an actual arc than Brave Chef, though.

Note: Definitely recommended to readers of Princeless, while they're waiting for another volume. or maybe when they're not QUITE old enough for that. Anyways similar vein. I just like the art and prose better in this.

Cute! Mega Pony is definitely the best character. Perfect light read for new graphic novel readers.

An adorable adventure story filled with humor, suspense, and mystery. This is a great graphic novel. Written as a classic mystery story, with plenty of misdirection, this book takes the princess trope and turns it on its head. A sleuthing princess, an evil queen who isn't all bad, and a punk rock fairy godmother named Amber- this book is pretty amazing.

Loved the illustrations. They are all very cute.

I also fell in love with the characters at first sight. Max and Justine (a.k.a. Jerk Pony, a.k.a. Mega Pony) are hilarious and sassy. I loved their budding friendship. Equipped with Max's super sleuthing skills and magical princess powers and Justine's awesome technology and sarcasm, this is an unbeatable (and lovable) team!

Long live Mega Princess and Mega Pony!

Cute story, cute art. The main character was rather annoying in the start but had some redeeming qualities towards the end.

A fantastic, fun-filled story about a princess who breaks all the stereotypes. I loved all the nods to the film noir/detective genre and how Max used the skills of traditional fairytale princesses to solve the case and rescue her brother.

It was cute, but nothing amazing. But still entertaining and a quick read
