N.L N.L

Liked how you explained what the story is going to be about. But you have to give me the story so I have to know what the story is going to be about.

Connor and Bailey are on an adventure that shouldn't be possible, through a land of stories fairy tale stories. They have met the Witch of Hansel and Gretel, had the distasteful time with the horribly shallow Red and a nice Jack,had a bad run with Goldilocks, met the Wolfs that ate Red Riding Hood, and lived with a giant MAN-FROG mix. Can everything that is going on be tied to the Twins? But worst of all the only have one way home to find spell before the Evil Queen does or has there heads first.

I love this book because all of the characters are fascinating! The way Chris Colfer makes their personalities is extraordinary! I don't think anyone could've made it better than he did! The way he showed the story behind the actual story is amazing.

It's so magical and amazing!
