This was a very quick read and I wish there was more details however it was still a good read. The authors take on the fairytale children is quite fun to read about and it had a good plot twist. I did read it a long time ago but I am glad I read it again. I would recommend if you want a fast fantasy book that is adventurous and mysterious. Give it a go!

Genre(s): children's, middle-grade, fantasy
Theme(s): fairytale retellings, high school
Recommended for ages: 11+
Summary: In order to keep the fairytales alive and well, Principal Grimm (descendant of the brothers Grimm) has decreed that all students of Ever After High must sign the storybook of legends and relive the famous stories we all know so well. The problem is Raven Queen has no desire to spend the rest of her days as the evil queen and poison her friend Apple White. But if she doesn't sign-then her and her story will disappear...forever. Or will they?
Review: I love fairytale retellings and this one was quite fun. It's very light, cheesy, and young. There's not much depth, but is perfect for young readers who are a fan of fairytales and princesses.

The kitsch was almost too much for me in the first half, but I got into the story after that. The writing is excellent, as expected from Hale, but I don't know that I will read more in this trademarked series. I really did enjoy this story, with strong characters, and a message of not having to follow in your parents' footsteps, not having to follow a path marked out for you by others - for both those with a happy ending, and for those who see good reasons to change the story that has cycled before them. I really appreciated the duality of that message, as I'm sure many readers can identify with one side or the other.
