Ratings and reviews

So my mom got me the first book and I was like ok so this is boring after reading like the first pages then I lost it but when I got the second book I was hooked and read all 6 of them and now I can read big chapter books in a 12 hour period LITERALLY! So yeah never judge a book by It's cover. p.s I am so into fairy tale characters now so thx for that 😉.

I love the book series, I always imagined I was in the books. I don't like how it leaves you on a cliff hanger though. I encourage you fellow readers to start reading the five kingdoms. I really like made up stories.

Omfg!! This series is so freakin amazing, i cant wait to buy this one!!! I own all of the others, 2 on paper, 2 on my phone and as soon as this one comes out i will buy it!!! I literally could not put the last book down, i was up all night reading it. If you dont read this series you will regret it, and be missing out big time, everyone I know who has read even one of the books in the series got hooked! BEST. BOOKS. EVER.
