As the first cracks show, Frankie and Draculaura are accidentally transported to Ever After High, where they meet Raven Queen and Apple White. After the girls recover from the shock of learning that fairytales and monsters are real, they discover that the Evil Queen has escaped her mirror prison in search of the ultimate power, hidden in Shadow High.

It was cute and did a good job of blending the two aesthetics of Monster and Ever After High. There were definitely turns that I didn't expect. I will say that the narrator (Brooke) was the stand out character of the book. She had pretty much all of the best lines. It was a unique addition to the series.

"Because you're a smart girl," Draculaura says, "and smart girls know to be scared of dark, mysterious mountains sailing like boats through foggy, mysterious places."

Good insult and scientifically accurate.

Now you know: When you're reading a book and time jumps forward, the reason is probably that the Narrator had to take a break or, like, go to bed or something. - Brooke

Honesty? Sometimes I wish that was the reason.
