I had a good time with this book, it is cute and heartwarming. I believe it is book 3 in a series, but as each book apparently has a different main character, I didn't have any problems understanding it.

The main character Sofia is very likeable and layered; a privileged princess who has also had to cope with a lot of pain and loss - and who is fascinated with philosophy. Her relationships with her friends (who include a dragon, goblins and a kobold) are all great to read. I possibly would have liked to see her relationship with her older sister handled a little differently but it's not a major issue. 

Overall an enjoyable, cosy read, and I will be checking out the other two books on the series.
