Of course, like any book, there are problems that the characters face. And those problems would be pretty (very) sad- if they weren't put in such a light hearted way. Plus, the ways they get resolved are so imaginative and full of little fairy tale and nursery rhyme references. I love them!
Mostly, I think I have a soft spot for anything mythology/fairy tale based. And this book adapts all the fairy tale elements so well! From the names of the second generation characters to the modern technology that is incorporated into their "Ever After" land, everything just fits together perfectly. A+ worldbuilding.
Cerise was really featured in this book, and it was great because she's my favorite character in this series. Also, I knew her secret. I knew it! Of course, there were plenty of clues. But still, it always gives me a little thrill when I figure out something before it's revealed...
Maddie. Maddie was also great in this one as usual. Her conversations with the Narrator are great. (They make me wonder who the Narrator is, seeing how they went to Ever After High... Milton Grimm's brother perhaps? Hmm?)
So, now, they really have to solve the problem of Wonderland, right? I hope that happens in the next book! Whatever happens, I look forward to more of the pure candy-coated adorableness that this series holds.
