What an end. Really loved what Buckley did with this series and how all the ends were tied up.

This is like A Series of Unfortunate Events meets Once Upon a Time. Humans and 'Everafters' aka fairytale characters live side by side but the characters don't age while humans do. The Sisters are descendants of the Grimm Brothers. The whole premise of Grimm Brothers stories being documentation rather than fairytales made up is fantastic.

This series was whimsical and wild and so much fun!

great ending to the series. A definite read for people who love the Grimm's and fairytales/folklore.

This book is amazing. I have waited for a long time for it to come out and now that I've read it, I wish there was more, but it was definitely an end, no matter how much I wish it was a beginning.

I'm glad the series is over (9 books is a lot!) and I'm glad it ended on a good note. Sabrina and Daphne are very much like real children, which makes them endearing and frustrating at the same time.

I think I like the other takes on fairy tales more but I think I'm not in the target age group for this, either.
