Book Review!

Hi there!
So this is my first book review on tweencraft, but I'm not totally new to this...I used to do it frequently on my blog...not so much any more. Anyway................... I should probably introduce myself just in case anyone who reads this doesn't know me. My name is Lauren and I am the book reviewer for tweencraft, which I think is way cool!! I get to do this blog with my cousin (em) who also is really into reading, her mom and my aunt (suz), and mi madre (jeanne). Now I should probably get going on the book review...here we go!!

THE SISTERS GRIMM: THE EVERAFTER WAR
BOOK 7 IN THE NEW YORK TIMES BEST-SELLER SISTERS GRIMM SERIES

I can't get a picture right now, but I'll get one on here asap!

First of all, can I just say this is one of my favorite series' in EVER?! I love these books, and was super excited when I found out yesterday it was on sale! I got it yesterday, started about 7:45-ish and finished it this morning at about 12:30-ish. Yes, it is that good! I believe I reviewed book 6 on my blog...so if you read that you are kinda familiar with this series.

This book picks up within an hour of book 6. Goldilocks has finally shown up and ready to wake up Sabrina and Daphne's dad, so he can wake up their mom. (for those of you who don't know, their parents were missing a little under 2 years, and the last 2 months, they've been in an enchanted sleep.) Now Henry and Veronica Grimm have woken up to chaos in Ferryport Landing NY. Prince Charming and his band of rebels are plotting a war against Master and the Scarlet Hand. Sabrina is so excited to have her family back together, but after taking care of herself and Daphne for so long, she has forgotten how life with parents is.
Meanwhile, the Master has dark plans for the Grimm's. They rebel group led by Charming has had their ranks infiltrated by a traitor, and they finally find out who Master is. And who it is will change their lives forever! You will be shocked by the betrayals, trust me, I was!! You will never guess! At least, I was.
I would really recommend this book to anyone who likes fairy tales in the slightest. This is a really suspenseful series, as books 5, 6, and 7 all end with "To Be Continued..."
Read them, you won't regret it!!

I am looking forward to being able to read this series. Your excitement about them makes me anxious to start them, however we only own the last 2 or 3 so I can't start them. Maybe this summer, if I get a chance.

Welcome to Tweencraft Lauren! What a great first post! Emily has been working through that series too. Maybe I will brave the pages to see what's happened to my favorite characters.

Have you read the "Book of a Thousand Days" by Shannon Hale? It's really, really good too! I just read it about a month ago. Very much a page turner, couldn't put it down.
