The Grimm Legacy

By Polly Shulman

Hi! I have thought it over and I’m going to be starting a new method of writing reviews. I hope you like it!

I really loved this book! It was full of magic and fairy tales. One of my favorite parts of reading is getting to read fairy tales!

My favorite character in this book is Elizabeth. She starts out as a normal girl, but she ends up as the hero! Another one of my favorite characters is Anjali. She is very brave for reasons that I won’t say for fear of giving too much away. Two other very important characters are Aaron and Marc. Elizabeth meets Aaron at her summer work. He’s a nice guy, but he seems so cold-hearted to anyone who is friends with Marc. He’s only nice to Anjali, who is also friends with Marc. (When I first started reading the book, I thought it was because he secretly liked her.) Marc is a super-popular guy at Elizabeth’s school. He also goes to her summer work job, and everyone seems to really like him (except for Aaron, that is!).

When everything goes wrong at their summer work, will they be able to bring it back together, or will everything just fall apart? As I always say, read the book to find out!

A few helpful things I like to say about the books I read:
