Loved this book. It’s a great addition to the Never After series, love reading about how the characters grow and change in this latest installment, and how different fairy tales are brought into the real world.

This is the third book in the series. It can be read alone but is best read in order.
Filomena and friends are back. This time, they need to help defeat the ogres so the correct people can be crowned in the three areas in Never After. At home, Filomena's mom is sick and she is distracted with worry over her mom.
Opinion
Yet again, de la Cruz amazes me with her twists on fairy tales. Even though I recognize the stories embedded into this book, the new take on them is thrilling. How does the frog prince return to his human form? Who are the seven dwarves really? De la Cruz has turned fairy tales upside down and given you a story you won't forget.
This book is perfect for the middle grade reader who clings to childhood but wants to venture closer to adulthood. This book offers a little of both worlds.
Many thanks to Net Galley and Macmillan Children's Publishing Group for providing me an ARC of this book.
