“The night is young, and by the grace of magic, so are we.”2 stars, even 2.5 stars at best.Unfortunately this didn't make me feel as young as I should be. In fact, I felt bored and felt like reading this was a bit of a chore, which is sad. Again it might have something to do with reading my previous...

My Thoughts: This was an entertaining start to a series. Having many of your favorite fairy-tale characters stuck in one place as long as their is a Grimm living there has led to some interesting twists and turns that you might not expect.My favorite characters were Grandma Grimm and Daphne. I loved...
An okay modernization of classic fairy tales. There were a few fun, new elements: Puck is one of the main-ish characters; characters and elements from stories I wouldn't consider fairy tales were here: Aladdin's carpet, King Arthur and Excalibur, and the Queen of Hearts; and there's only one Prince...
I've been looking for a good series to dive into, something to temper the need to be in constant search of the next read. Unfortunately, I don't think this series will be the one, but not for the reasons you might think.Characters: Sabrina is smart, determined and protective of her younger sister; s...
The Fairy-Tale Detectives is a pleasant audiobook read that fans of fairy tales (young and those who are young at heart) will probably enjoy. I liked the idea that the Grimms were actually a real family of chroniclers whose legacy continues into the present. Sisters Sabrina and Daphne make for lik...

My daughters have finished The Sisters Grimm - The FairytaleDetectives, which is the first in the series by Michael Buckley, andit's really quite good!The idea is that two sisters, Sabrina and Daphne, are the directdescendants of...you guessed it... the Brothers Grimm, and that thefamous fairytales ...
Rating: 3.5 of 5 Nothing new or mind-blowing but a fun, light read nonetheless. Recommended for young readers (ages 8-14) who enjoy modern fairy tale mash-ups. Most likely I will not buy the others in the series; however, I will definitely borrow them from the library as they look promising and, a...
This was overall a pretty cute story that I think my kids would probably like and get a few giggles from.I was annoyed by some of the formatting, though - as well as the punctuation errors I noticed frequently. I'll probably continue with the series when I have more time, but it's not high on my lis...
