The New York Times bestselling The School for Good and Evil is an epic journey into a dazzling new world, where the only way out of a fairy tale is to live through one. Start here to follow Sophie, Agatha, and everyone at school from the beginning!

With her glass slippers and devotion to good deeds, Sophie knows she'll earn top marks at the School for Good and join the ranks of past students like Cinderella, Rapunzel, and Snow White. Meanwhile, Agatha, with her shapeless black frocks and wicked black cat, seems a natural fit for the villains in the School for Evil.

The two girls soon find their fortunes reversed—Sophie's dumped in the School for Evil to take Uglification, Death Curses, and Henchmen Training, while Agatha finds herself in the School for Good, thrust among handsome princes and fair maidens for classes in Princess Etiquette and Animal Communication.

But what if the mistake is actually the first clue to discovering who Sophie and Agatha really are?

love this book! Tedros should have admit that he actually likes agatha!

Overall, I give this book 3.5 stars but, since there is no half I'll round up to 4. I thought 'The School for Good and Evil' was pretty good but it had some flaws. This book is about a place where all the fairytale characters are real and have children. (Very 'The Sisters Grimm' esc) They send their children to the School for Good and Evil. But every year there are also 2 'readers'. People who aren't desendants of characters but instead have read the stories. The main characters are pink-loving, 'kind', pretty Sophie and black-wearing, ugly, creepy Agatha. Sophie is sure she'll go to the school for good and Agatha evil. But the story takes an interesting turn when they each head to the other's school. Their lives get even more hectic when a cute prince enters the mix... First of all, I thought this book was cute and had a fun theme. But, I found the numerous action sences hard to follow and I easily got confused. I liked the story but, I found for a 400 page book, some important plot points weren't thouroghly explained. There lots of unexpected surprises but, some went a little too far. I thought the ending was kind of twisted. I would recommend this book to girls who aren't boy crazy yet. So, probably 9-11 year olds.

This is a extraordinarily story every page is a new adventure waiting to be discovered.The complex plot unraveled beautifully. A maze that's never ending but will keep you turning the pages till the end.I LOVE THE BOOK.😍YOU SHOULD READ IT!! 😁🐈
