For fans of Disney princesses and Sailor Moon–style girl power, Cursed Princess Club is a lighthearted story of a young royal named Gwendolyn who finds her place in a world obsessed with princes, beauty, and happily-ever-afters. Just because you’re cursed doesn’t mean you’re not special. Meet Gwendolyn, the youngest of the king’s three daughters.

When her father proposes marriage for Gwen and her sisters in hopes of building an alliance with the Plaid Kingdom, hearts shatter when Gwen overhears Prince Frederick call her “ugly.” Ashamed and overwhelmed, she runs away into the forest, where she discovers the twisted and enchanted world of the Cursed Princess Club—and her life will never be the same. Bringing her two worlds together may be more difficult than Gwen realized. With her dinner party preparations set in motion—from the seating plan, to the catering, to the socializing—everything seems to be running smoothly.

If that’s not enough to juggle, the entire Plaid Kingdom royal family will also be in attendance. But everything has its upsides—this gives Gwen the chance to spend even more time with Frederick.
