Miri lives on a mountain where, for generations, her ancestors have quarried stone and lived a simple life. Then word comes that the king's priests have divined her small village the home of the future princess. In a year's time, the prince himself will come and choose his bride from among the girls of the village. The king's ministers set up an academy on the mountain, and every teenage girl must attend and learn how to become a princess.
Miri soon finds herself confronted with a harsh academy mistress, bitter competition among the girls, and her own conflicting desires to be chosen and win the heart of her childhood best friend. But when bandits seek out the academy to kidnap the future princess, Miri must rally the girls together and use a power unique to the mountain dwellers to save herself and her classmates.

i really like this book, too! it is about this girl named miri who goes with her "friends" to a royal academy. they train to become the wife of a prince. some parts are "tough". you should really read this book!
Also by the same author as goose girl and Enna burning, this book is equally as good, and is about a little girl who wants to be something big. Miri is one of the characters that you will love at first look. Read this book to unlock the wonders of Miri and her flowers.
