The New York Times bestselling The School for Good and Evil is an epic journey into a dazzling new world, where the only way out of a fairy tale is to live through one. Start here to follow Sophie, Agatha, and everyone at school from the beginning!

With her glass slippers and devotion to good deeds, Sophie knows she'll earn top marks at the School for Good and join the ranks of past students like Cinderella, Rapunzel, and Snow White. Meanwhile, Agatha, with her shapeless black frocks and wicked black cat, seems a natural fit for the villains in the School for Evil.

The two girls soon find their fortunes reversed—Sophie's dumped in the School for Evil to take Uglification, Death Curses, and Henchmen Training, while Agatha finds herself in the School for Good, thrust among handsome princes and fair maidens for classes in Princess Etiquette and Animal Communication.

But what if the mistake is actually the first clue to discovering who Sophie and Agatha really are?

The school for good and evil, is a novel written by Soman Chainani. The story begins, talking about two villagers; Agatha and Sophia, whom are grown up to be best friends. When the two girls find themselves whisked away by the School Master of the School of Good and Evil, Sophie is ecstatic until she realizes that she has been placed in the School for Evil (Nevers) and Agatha is in the School for Good (Evers). She tries to switch places with Agatha on several occasions while trying to insist that she's an Ever rather than a Never and therefore deserves the attentions of the handsome Prince Tedros.

If you have always dreamed of getting kidnapped to become a princess when everybody is scared of it and you think your best friend will be the witch,what would you do? Well in this fantasy book filled with good and evil and "mistakes" one girl just packes her bags.

This book is odd. It starts off dull, but around page 300 it gets a lot better. Don't read it if you can't wait for the good stuff. It's about two girls, Agatha and Sophie, who are taken to the School for Good and Evil. Read this book!

This book was a very interesting book since it had many twist and turns from evil to good. This book is fantasy so if you like fantasy this is a great book to read.!!!

A new take on fairy tales leaves you wanting more! Two lovely girls in their own right find themselves in the School of Good and Evil. As they received a true fairy tale education, they find good and evil is not as clearly defined as fairy tales suggest. Their friendship is tested to the limits. I am looking forward to reading book two!
