Abby's in a horrible mood. She just got eleventh place in the school spelling bee, even though she was completely sure she would win. She can spell! She's smart! So why didn't she come out on top? Eyes stinging, Abby simply grumbles irritably when her little brother Jonah suggests going through the mirror that night—that is, until she realizes that Jonah intends to go through the mirror alone. Abby's sisterly instincts kick in and she runs after her tricky little brother! This time, they land in the coveted Rapunzel story. They're thrilled to meet the actual Rapunzel in-person, I mean, who doesn't want to meet an internationally-renowned fairytale princess? But Jonah accidentally shreds and rips most of Rapunzel's hair by climbing up it with his soccer cleats. Oopsie! Now, Abby and Jonah race to save Rapunzel's hair—and, most importantly, her story—before it's too late. But along the way, Rapunzel uncovers horrifying truths that have been stored away for years, and Abby realizes that winning isn't always everything. This brilliant fifth installment in the Whatever After series is bound to raise the "hairs" (get it?) on the back of your neck, make you cry, and most importantly, make you smile.

I've read the books until now, and I'm looking forward to read this one! Nicholas Flamel is an action packed series, and is amazing for grades 6-8 :)

''Lida thought she was safe.''- This book is so emotional! The fact that the author had asked someone to tell them about their story, their story about getting captured by Hitler and basing it off of a book, is incredible. Lida has been captured by the Nazi and separated from her sister Larissa. Now she has been taken to a camp with other kids like her. When they get there, children under 12 are separated in one group, and over 12 in another. An older kid told her to lie to them about your age, say you're older. They say if you're older, you're useful. And how she knows this? This isn't the first time she was captured by the Nazi. But when Lida's friend gets an idea to sabotage the bombs they are assigned to make, it may work. They tell them they are watched all times. But they can carry dirt and dump it into the bombs. The idea actually works. Soon Lida and her friends who survived get rescued by the American army. But what about Larissa? Fortunately, Lida gets a letter from her sister saying she got rescued and is in Canada! This book was so detailed and I would definitely give it a 5/5 rating. I recommend this to people interested in the Nazi and Adolf Hitler.

I got hacked or something and I have nobody I use to follow like I have nothing like Eagle fan was my friend and five others now I have to start over oh my god.

: Brine Seaborne is on a ship, sailing to a place over the hills and far away...Brine is eating octopus tentacles, which are quite chewy, but she wonders whether or not they are safe to eat... The ship's name is the Onion, a ship spoken of in legends. Locked in the brig is a bald magician named Marfak West, and he is very evil. There are also some weirdly named pirates, a mediocre pirate chef, and a strange magician apprentice, Peter. This quirky novel tells the tale of how Brine, former servant to the grouchy old magician so-and-so. Together with Peter, the magician's apprentice, she flees her home of the Minutes Islands and comes across the Onion. Convinced that a pirate's life is not for them, the ship's captain Cassie O'Pia decides to sell them as servants at Morning Island; alas, her plan is interrupted when that evil bald magician suddenly appears and tells them of a mysterious place near the north pole called Magical North... There, they say, since all magic flows north, one may stand and see all. Ooooh. And there's treasure. This amazing book was full of great characters, a nicely imagined fantastical world, and the evil penguins were a nice touch. Or are they puffins? Also, the excerpts from the books of the Magical North world at the start of chapters added to the story. But I was perturbed when I realized that the cover is not accurate, since there isn't actually a giant octopus in the story. Also, how Marfak West doesn't tell lies is mentioned many times; around three people said that in the book, and there are around three similes about pulling down mountains. Aside from that, the writing style was better than average. Great author, very original story. I definitely recommend it for seekers of good Middle-Grade Fiction.

I hope that I can read it because i heard that it was funny and very wonderful! i also hope that i can find it in the library. Have a nice day!

OK first I saw this, great cover. Looked it up. Great ratings on Goodreads, and now I really want to read the sequel to the first one. I will put in a star rating, once I have actually read this book.

I got this book at a thrift store, (my Grammie lets me pick out my own gifts) and I have to wait till Christmas to get my copy, but I really can't wait to read this!

The fourth Tomorrow Girls is full of action, suspense, and new reveals. I love the fantastic ending to this quartet, and I'm already wishing for more.
