This is one of the short stories in the Ever After High universe that I actually liked. It gave a glimpse into Briar's family and character that you don't necessarily get from the webisodes online or the Ever After High book series itself. The whole concept behind Ever After High is blatantly marketing for the Ever After High doll franchise which is trying to take off and be the next Monster High. I typically like Shannon Hale and her voice but I feel it gets lost in this series.

Her destiny is pretty sad. Also I find the characters having siblings pretty cute especially since we never really see it in the series.

After briefly hearing of briar in the first book, I wasn't too excited for this one, mainly because i didn't like apple white and she is best friends with Apple so I assumed I wouldn't like briar. However after reading this story, my perception of briar changed. She's seems really sweet and where she lives is super cool, I love the way they basically travel around on zip wires. Also her brothers stealing her jewellery to play pirates and Peter Pan was adorable

Gah, no. After finally reading any part of the Ever After High series, I am so glad that I never tried to read the first book. It is like a tween Valley high girl lives in some strange form of a Barbie world but with, like, fairytales... and stuff*.

*Terrible puns.

Also, this has mostly 5-star ratings?????

Slightly better than the Apple White one. But not the best of the bunch by far.

"....I've been robbed!" "What?" Her father put her down so that he could place his fists on his hips and strike a hero's pose. He might be a middle-aged king now, but he had once been the brave young prince who battled his way into Sleeping Beauty's castle. And he never forgot that."
