About this ebook
The next generation - the children of Snow White, Cinderella, and others - have lives and stories of their own. And not just long ago and far away but (sort of) here and now! Enjoy!
I was going to be a great protagonist. At least that's what my mom, Cinderella, kept telling me. I, however, had my doubts. Unlike most main characters at Lady Agnue's School for Princesses & Other Female Protagonists, I was opinionated, bold, and headstrong. Moreover, for a princess, I had a lot of issues. I'm talking vicious nightmares about people I've never met, a total stalker prince, and a Fairy Godmother for an enemy.
But I digress. Because here's the thing about living in an enchanted realm of fairytale characters, crazy junk you never planned on happens all the time. One minute you could be practicing fainting exercises in Damsels in Distress class, sword fighting in a field, or flying on a Pegasus, and the next, BAM! Your book has begun and you're saddled with a prophecy that changes everything.
I still don't know if I will be a great protagonist one day. But I know one thing about my fate, for certain. Despite what The Author and the antagonists have in store for me, whatever it costs. . .I'll be the one taking charge of my own story..
Readers love Crisanta Knight!

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Faint tendency towards harping on a subject (reminiscent of the essay pattern: say it, repeat it, say it again, lol), but it's quite an interesting story. Crisanta is Cinderella's rebellious daughter. As in, she thinks it's unfair that protagonist's stories aren't a record of their life choices but rather the story "the author" lays out for them. (When you put it that way, I agree!) She's got two best friends, one snarky high-school type enemy, and a wild idea that she can change her future. Along the way, she rides flying horses, occasionally uses a word incorrectly, finds Fairy Godmother headquarters, and...well, the story is just getting going when it ends and I realized it was a series. Lol, not quite a whiplash-vertigo class cliffhanger. I wouldn't mind reading more of this series.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5It ended up being mediocre for me. I liked the premise--what happens after the "happily ever after" at the end of fairy tales. Turns out they go on to have families.Princes and princesses are assumed to be protagonists in their own stories and are sent to "finishing" schools to be trained as such. A few lucky commoners receive "prologues" as well and get the same treatment. Unfortunately, the schools seem to tend to stick to the "traditional" roles. Men are the heroes; they get to do the fighting, the defending, etc. Women need to be rescued and should comport themselves properly at all times. The girls do seem to get the shorter end of the stick--they're trapped within their school grounds by a spell most of the time.And had the story stuck to that, I'd probably have rated it higher. But to me, the story dragged on way too long.WARNING: SPOILERS MAY FOLLOW. READ AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION.*****Crisanta, called Crisa, is the daughter of Cinderella. She rooms with Snow White Jr., called SJ, and Blue, the sister of Red Riding Hood. They are also friends with Jason (and Mark who is mentioned but never shows up in this book). Jason's new roommate is Daniel. While SJ seems content to follow the "princess" storyline, Crisa wants to be an untraditional protagonist, so when her prologue comes telling her she's going to marry a man she despises, she decides it's time to go find the author and try to plead her case to get her plot changed. And that's about where I think this book should have ended. Because after that, we're subjected to the group tricking a fairy godmother trainee in order to find Fairy Godmother Headquarters--in an attempt to locate Crisa's former fairy godmother, Emma. Then, when that fails, we're forced to endure the girls's attempts to steal several enchanted items from their school's exhibit so that they can use the mirror to show them where Emma is. Then, they have to escape their school and travel to find Emma, who gives them a list of three items that they will need to be able to break the spell surrounding the author, and finally, before book one mercifully ends, they must secure the first item from the list. During that last, Crisa learns that her dreams have some root in the real world, and also that the council is faking royal prologues as well as destroying ones that come for commoners.So, let me guess, the author probably wrote a non-traditional prologue for Crisa which was intercepted by the council and a fake one written and substituted in its place--either that or Chance is supposed to protect Crisa somehow (even though she'd rather protect herself).
