Tuesdays at Castle Glower are Princess Celie's favorite days. That's because on Tuesdays the castle adds a new room, a turret, or sometimes even an entire wing. No one ever knows what the castle will do next, and no one-other than Celie, that is-takes the time to map out the new additions. But when King and Queen Glower are ambushed and their fate is unknown, it's up to Celie, with her secret knowledge of the castle's never-ending twists and turns, to protect their home and save their kingdom. This delightful book from a fan- and bookseller-favorite kicks off a brand-new series sure to become a modern classic.

Great book!
I really liked this book because it was a different kind of book. I liked how Celie had a special connection to the castle and how, even though she was little, she proved that she could make a big difference. I also liked how she was the first to notice how the castle had changed or moved and she was the only one who tried to make an atlas of the castle. It was a really good book.
Magical castle. Celie. She lives in a castle. Her brother might be king. Evil people try to be king. Castle dies. Read this boooooooooooooooooook. Yes.
THIS BOOK IS AWESOME!!! I personally like Rolf and Pouge the best. This book is very good and is also AMAZING! GO GET KHELSH GRIFFIN RUFUS!!!
This book is good, but not the best. Celie's parents are in trouble and her kingdoms castle is nearly dead. She is trapped by Khelsh with her sister Lilah, and she has a big job to do, tell every worker in the castle to leave the castle to leave. Celie had a battle with Khelsh and thankfully Celie won. A griffin lunged at Khelsh and Celie escaped. The book has exciting moments and boring moments. The book sounded boring to me at first but, never judge a book by it's name or cover!
Celie is 11-years-old and the youngest princess in Castle Glower. And everybody knows the Castle loves her best. When the Castle is bored, which it usually is on Tuesdays since that is the day King Glower the 79th hears petitions, it opens up a new set of rooms. And one of Celie's favorite habits is to explore the Castle, mapping out the new rooms and finding it's secret passageways. When Celie's eldest brother graduates from Wizard College, the king and queen leave Castle Glower to attend his graduation. When their carriage is attacked by bandits on the way back, everyone believes the worst but Celie, Rolf (the crown prince) and Lilah (Celie's very proper older sister) know they can't have been killed since the Castle hasn't changed anything about the king and queen's rooms. When foreign people arrive to "mourn" the passing of the king and queen, the royal kids knew that at least one of them is eyeing their kingdom in the hopes of taking over. The people thought it'd be easy; what they failed to take into account was Castle Glower itself which helps the three royal kids "play pranks" on those that would take things that don't belong to them. I would rate this book 2 stars out of 5 because mostly because it got really boring and I didn't want to read on, but overall it was very good and my 5 year old sister liked it.
This book is so entertaining.So let all about it.Princess Celie loves Tuesdays Castle Glower.On Tuesdays at Castle Glower the castle somehow grows a new room,a turret,or even a entire wing!No one knows about what the castle will do next.But when Celie's father and mother died it's up to Celie with her unknown,secret knowledge of castle's never-ending twists and turns to protect her home and the entire kingdom.This is a very delightful book.No wonder alot of people like it.
