Such a good idea! I love Chanda Hahn's creativity. I really do, and I love how the story goes, with the ideas and what happens, and all that good stuff.
However, I have a problem with the writing, how the book flows, and how the book feels as though it's still a rough draft. If it were edited a few more times, it would easily be many people's favorite book. The ideas are there, but organization, pacing, and finality are missing in some areas.

Really liked this book. she kept with the story line, although it did take a bit to get going in the beginning of the book. Thought Mina was a bit weak, but by the end she really came into her own. Can't wait for book 3 and I think my daughter will enjoy this as well.

Basically the same as my review of UnEnchanted. It's cute, light, and fun. The characters aren't overly deep, the plot is silly at times. But you know, whenever a book can make me laugh I'm happy. If the author continues the series, I'll keep reading.
