Don't miss the thrilling conclusion to the beloved series, The School for Good and Evil #6: One True King ! Review: Prepare for a breaking of the heart, twisting of the spirit and warping of any illusions you have about Good and Evil! - The School for Good and Evil, it sounds like a light breezy read doesn’t it? What it really is *flabbergasted for the right word* is well, downright MAGNIFICENT! I haven’t loved a book so much in a very long time, and I devour books like a maniac. It literally went above and beyond any expectation I could have conceived for it. I picked it up thinking: “This will be quite the fluffy fairytale,” but was blown away because it was nothing of the kind. Lets begin with the description: I love that it tells you exactly what The School for Good and Evil is about without giving away even an inkling of just how this tale is going to be delivered. This is a book that can definitely be enjoyed by fairy tale lovers of all ages. Especially if you don’t mind your fairy tales having a bit of a dark side. Not too dark mind you but just the right amount. Yes, JUST RIGHT!! There are wonderful comic moments, that I couldn’t help but smirk at. I felt like the author was making fun of so many things and it tickled me pink to no end. However, there are also some moments that tightened my chest and throat. You know what I’m talking about, that’s right when you are biting back the tears. I’m not normally a crier…I’m a laugh-er. So, I don’t think I can explain well enough why this book touched me so much. Also, it is full of beautiful illustrations! At least one for the start of each chapter. These added the perfect storybook touch. What surprised and absolutely delighted me was how much I loved all of the characters. I grew attached to all of them! From main, to sidekicks, to little supplemental characters. They were all given realism and depth of character that made each unique and memorable. My favorite is Hort…you’ll hear me gush about him again. *smirk* I was captured immediately by the wry sense of humor one of the main characters Agatha possessed. She looks like your typical fairy tale witch but somehow ends up in the School for Good! As you can see from the quote below. She is a snappy girl and I couldn’t help but love her. “Graveyards have their benefits,” Agatha said. “No nosy neighbors. No drop-in salesmen. No fishy ‘friends’ bearing face masks and diet cookies, telling you you’re going to Evil School in Magic Fairy Land.” Soman Chainani writes characters that we can see reflected back in ourselves. These are the children that we once were, or hey for those young readers, perhaps who they still are. I think he was delving deep trying to get his readers to challenge those childhood tropes of Good and Evil. Are you beautiful with flawless skin and impeccable clothes? Are you ugly with warts and foul body odor? Does eating lots of sweets really lead you down a road of sin and temptation? Well shucks folks, I MUST be Evil because I’m a total greedy gobbler! Prepare yourself for the “Evers” and the “Nevers” – that’s what these kids call themselves, for that’s how their stories go. But onto my favorite character Hort, of course he is a “Never,” attending the School for Evil. He was such a sad pathetic looking little guy, but he was excitable and friendly and hey he was Evil right, but he wasn’t – so what is he? This quote is when I first met him – and the little girl in me that loves the underdog had high hopes for him. He looked like a sinister little weasel. “The bird ate my shirt,” he said. “Can I touch your hair?” Sophie backed up. “They don’t usually make villains with princess hair,” he said, dog-paddling towards her.” Then in unexpected moments my heart would break…and frequently it was Hort that would do this to me. “Dad told me villains can’t love. That it’s unnatural and disgusting.” … “So I definitely can’t love,” Hort said. … “But if I could love, I’d love you.” If that isn’t sad…unrequited love, then blast I don’t know what is! Agatha sums up the best element of this tale for me and precisely how I feel about villains! They are a major part of what makes a story worth reading. Often I feel like some authors treat them just as a way to make the good guy look better or “grow” into that strong character that the reader wants to love. But me? I’m usually secretly rooting for the bad guy. “She had always found villains more exciting than heroes. They had ambition, passion. They made the stories happen. Villains didn’t fear death. No, they wrapped themselves in death like suits of armor! As she inhaled the school’s graveyard smell, Agatha felt her blood rush. For like all villains, death didn’t scare her. It made her feel alive.” ​​ The School for Good and Evil captures the true spirit of the human heart in so many ways that I was laughing, cringing, weeping and just dying to get to the end to know how this fairy tale would end. And now?…now I’m so sad that it’s over.​ I know this book will become a hearthstone in my library, one that I will read my own child when he gets older and that I will return to time and again. So consider this readers… "What’s the one thing Evil can never have…and the one thing Good can never do without?" P.S. There is already a film being planned for 2015! *squees in utter joy and runs off before I keep up with the spewings of love* Review: Enchanting Fairytale - "In the forest Primeval A School for Good and Evil Two towers like twin heads Once for the pure One for the wicked Try to escape you'll always fail The only way out Is through a Fairy Tale." When I first read about the School for Good and Evil, I had a feeling it would be my kind of book and couldn't wait to get my hands on a copy. I've always loved fairytales, and add in some magic with some adventure and fantasy and you have the makings of a classic. This book did not disappoint, it had my imagination running - picturing the settings and the characters. Oh and the characters! They made you want to keep turning the pages. They were quirky fun and full of spunk. "I don't know why people think princesses are pretty." Hester said picking a wart on her toe." Their noses are small. Like little buttons you want to pop off." Sophie and Agatha both had so much emotion, it was easy to be a part of them and feel their struggles and how they developed and changed throughout the story. The secondary characters were also really fascinating and were able to hold their own. The only con I had about this story, was that I kinda-sorta wished that some more the classroom settings in the book were described a little bit more. I found them interesting and intriguing. I mean a classroom made of ice? and another of sweets? That's awesome! I also have a love for books that have a school setting, so my con is more the selfish reader in me wanting more, a tiny detail that is far from a deal breaker for this book. Nevertheless, I completely enjoyed this book and fell in love with the characters. I cannot wait to find out what happens to Agatha and Sophie in the next book! Summary: At the School for Good and Evil, failing your fairy tale is not an option. Welcome to the School for Good and Evil, where best friends Sophie and Agatha are about to embark on the adventure of a lifetime. In a village called Gavaldon, two children are kidnapped every four years, no matter how the village prepares and protects - they're always taken. Sometimes two boys, or two girls, or sometimes one of each, but one thing never changes. One child is always good and beautiful and the other is evil and homely. They're taken away to be the heroes, royals or wicked villains of fairy tales like Snow White and her evil stepmother or Hansel and Gretel and the cannibalistic witch. They were all once top students trained at the School for Good and Evil. 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 a villain in the School for Evil. They two girls soon find their fortunes reversed - Sophie's dumped in the School for Evil to take Uglification, Death Curses, and Henchman Training.

But what if the mistake is actually the first clue to discovering who Sophie and Agatha really are... ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The School for Good and Evil *by D***N on October 1, 2017* Sophie and Agatha are two girls from the same town. Every four years the schoolmaster abducts two children from the town and these children are never seen again. Or are they? The children of the village have noticed that some of the missing children are appearing in the new fairytale books that are issued once a year. Sophie is convinced that she is a shoo in for the School for Good and that she will become a princess. She is very vain and cares more for her appearance than she does for the feelings of others. Her friend Agatha has no delusions of being a princess. She sometimes thinks that the only reason that Sophie is her friend is to give her "good" points. On the night that the schoolmaster is supposed to make his selections, all the parents have done all that they could to make their children unattractive and difficult to obtain. Sophie's father has nailed her windows and door shut but she has unfastened them. Agatha joins Sophie and they are both whisked off to school. However, it does not turn out as Sophie thought for she is placed in the School of Evil and Agatha in the School for Good. This is book one in a series. I liked the dichotomy of the plot. It certainly had a lot of action. I'm not certain that this is truly a book for children. The moral ambivalence may be too much for them. Although the first book was entertaining, I'm not going to pursue the series. ## Frequently Bought Together - The School for Good and Evil: Now a Netflix Originals Movie (School for Good and Evil, 1) - The School for Good and Evil #2: A World without Princes: Now a Netflix Originals Movie - The School for Good and Evil #3: The Last Ever After: Now a Netflix Originals Movie --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co/products/1303249-the-school-for-good-and-evil](https://www.desertcart.co/products/1303249-the-school-for-good-and-evil) --- *Product available on Desertcart Colombia* *Store origin: CO* *Last updated: 2026-05-29*
