I feel that this series is being dragged on forever. As someone who picked up this series when I was younger and waiting each year for the next book to come out, I grew out of the books. Now I understand that authors realistically can’t release 10 books a year, I’m more than content with them only releasing one book a year, but the thing is that nothing is happening in these books. Every plot piece is repeated over and over and is frankly annoying. This really does not need to be such a long series and could have done way better if it was a trilogy or quartet.

I am in love with this series!!
I feel like this series and the Land Of Stories have things in common which is why I love them both so much!! Gillian is a good MC and Anna just makes this book better in so many ways!!
I love how all of these books are so action-packed too!!
Hope you all have a happy and healthy day!

Loved the addition of Beauty and the Beast - and especially their daughter, AG. AG was my favorite part of the whole book. Gilly was disappointing to me this time - she was so consumed with rescuing her sister, she lost some of the qualities that made me love her character in the earlier books - her strength and determination and sass. I hope she will regain those qualities in the next book.

Outrageously ridiculous fairy tale mashup series, featuring all the well-known fairy tale princesses, queens, princes, and villains.
The concept is outstanding, and I thought it would be a cute, whimsical, mystery-adventure tale. Only, I kept being distracted by all the flat-out crazy. The setting is a reform school, and Gilly, the main character, repeatedly breaks the rules with little regard for consequences.
Cute enough for a young reader to enjoy, not memorable for me, did not care for the main character.
