Alright I will admit it. I am a major closet Ever After High fan. I have watched all of the cartoons. I drool all over the dolls (but I have no daughters to blame for buying any- so I can only drool from afar). I wish that this series would have been around when I was younger- I absolutely LOVE it!At Ever After High, an enchanting boarding school, the children of fairytale legends prepare themselves to fulfill their destinies as the next generation of Snow Whites, Prince Charmings and Evil Queens...whether they want to or not. Each year on Legacy Day, students sign the Storybook of Legends to seal their scripted fates. For generations, the Village of Book End has whispered that refusing to sign means The End-both for a story and for a life.
As the daughter of the Evil Queen, Raven Queen's destiny is to follow in her mother's wicked footsteps, but evil is so not Raven's style. She's starting to wonder, what if she rewrote her own story? The royal Apple White, daughter of the Fairest of Them All, has a happy ever after planned for herself, but it depends upon Raven feeding her a poison apple in their future.
What if Raven doesn't sign the Storybook of Legends? It could mean a happily never after for them both.
And then I saw that they were doing a tie in novel. I saw that the author of that tie in novel was Shannon Hale. It literally was like a dream come true for me. I absolutely loved this book. It was quirky, it was fun, and it was so creative! I loved all of the side stories and fun adventures.
I know that there will be more books in this series. I have absolutely nothing bad to say about this book. If you are a fan of fairy tales- you really need to find this book, find this series, and then enjoy!
