THE PILOT.—“It is unspeakably refreshing to come upon a book so bubbling over with life and love and character and humour as ‘Princess Puck’ that to notice it forthwith is an imperative duty and pleasure. This is a novel to read once so that you may find out how good it is, and then straightway over again because it is so good that you must enjoy it more leisurely.”
THE SPECTATOR.—“Miss Silberrad’s exceedingly clever, fresh, and wholesome story.... Bill Alardy is a delightful creation: she bubbles over with life and goodwill, humour, energy, and affection; and everything she touches turns to romance.”
THE ACADEMY.—“The whole story is in the aggregate so pleasing and entertaining that we have little inclination to pick holes. Let it go as fresh and recommendable.”
PUNCH.—“... the exceeding charm of the creation of Wilhelmina Alardy, commonly known as Bill. In her freshness, her unconventionality, her keen insight, and her honesty, Bill is delightful.”
THE DAILY CHRONICLE.—“Miss Silberrad’s book deserves a high place in the fiction of the moment. The story is interesting and rattles along to the end without a pause; there is originality in the construction of the plot, and perception as well in the way the characters are conceived and presented. Bill herself is a charming conception.... Altogether, ‘Princess Puck’ is a book to be read, and to be read with discrimination.”
