This year, best friends Sophie and Agatha are about to discover where all the lost children go: the fabled School for Good and Evil, where ordinary boys and girls are trained to be fairy-tale heroes and villains.
As the most beautiful girl in Gavaldon, Sophie has dreamed of being kidnapped into an enchanted world her whole life. With her pink dresses, glass slippers, and devotion to good deeds, she knows she’ll earn top marks at the School for Good and graduate a storybook princess.
Meanwhile, Agatha, with her shapeless black frocks, wicked pet cat, and dislike of nearly everyone, seems a natural fit for the School for Evil.
But when the two girls are swept into the Endless Woods, they find their fortunes reversed – and they’ll quickly find that the only out of a fairy tale….is to live through it.
The School for Good and Evil is the first fantasy book I’ve ever read. I became a fan of fantasy movies and books when I start watching Harry Potter. This story is about the matter of love and friendship.
So the first book is about the start of the journey of two girls – Agatha and Sophie. Every number of years, there are two children in the town of Gavaldon who are kidnapped in the middle of the night. People don’t know where the lost children go but there’s a belief that they are taken to the School for Good and Evil. The School for Good is a school for princesses and princes. While, the School for Evil is a school for witches, trolls and villains.
Sophie believed that she is a princess with her golden long hair, emerald-green eyes, luscious red lips and creamy peach skin. She’s been dreaming about the day that she’ll get to enter the School for Good. So she did a lot of things to make sure she’ll get the position. She even make friends with the girl whom others call a witch, Agatha.
Agatha is a girl who lives in a small house in the Gavaldon Cemetery with her mother. She is described having a greasy and oily black hair, pale skin, and brown eyes. Sophie helped her with everything as part of her good deed. She doesn’t care with the town folk about the School for Good and Evil.
Until one night, both girls were kidnapped. They are horrified and surprised of the happenings. Sophie was sent to the School for Evil while Agatha gets to the School for Good. They thought everything was a mistake but they do not know this is their way of discovering who they really are.
The two girls tried to escape but their only way out is through a fairytale.
I enjoyed reading this book. It is full of magic. I even stayed up until midnight to read this. For those who loves fairytale, you better read this book because it’s really worth it.
BOOK 2 The School for Good and Evil: A World Without Princes

After saving themselves and their fellow students from a life pitched against one another, Sophie and Agatha are back home again, living happily ever after.
But life isn’t exactly a fairytale.
When Agatha secretly wishes she’d chosen a different happy ending with Prince Tedros, the gates to the School for Good and Evil open once again. But Good and Evil are no longer enemies and Princes and Princesses may not be what they seem, as new bonds form and old ones shatter.
In the second book, everything is switched up. Now, the main conflict is between the boys and the girls.
Bestfriends Sophie and Agatha are back at their home after all the problems they encountered in the first book. But Agatha wished for something that takes them back to the school. Agatha wished for a happy ending with her handsome prince Tedros.
When Agatha and Sophie are back to the school, they were surprised because it seems everything changed. The boys and girls are separated into two institutions, without good and evil anymore.
In this book, Agatha is having a hard time choosing between her feelings for Tedros or her friendship with Sophie.
I love Agatha and Sophie. They are both intelligent and adventurous. Sometimes you’ll hate them because of the way they act but still you’ll love them.
I love how the story turned out. It is full of fun and exciting moments.

And will their new ending be the last Ever After they’ve been searching for?
Soman Chainani delivers action, adventure, laughter, romance, and more twists than ever before in this extraordinary end to his epic series.
The last part of the book two was Agatha and Tedros where back in Gavaldon while Sophie is left behind in the woods with the School Master.
They thought that they’re ending was already sealed. Their story was about to change but this time it’s not only their story. Evil took over of everything. The villains came back to life to change their fairy tales. They want to turn the world of Good and Evil upside-down.
In this final book, the questions you had since the first book will be answered. What will happen to Sophie and Agatha? Are they going to be friends again? Will Sophie choose good or evil? Who’ll end up with Tedros? The mysteries will be revealed.
Two years ago, I borrowed this books from my friend because she told me to read it. I read the three books all summer.
I don’t know what know how to describe the book. It was just perfect. I really the concept of the author, he is so great. I love the flow of the story.
I love Agatha because of her kind, strong and smart character. She’s a girl who doesn’t believe in herself and made some mistakes. But along the way, you’ll saw how she changed on what kind of person she become. You’ll see how she struggles, how she overcome her fears, and their struggles as a couple.
Even though Sophie is a villain, I do still love her character. She’s a girl who just wants to live her dream. A girl who struggles when she tries to prove that she is really good. A girl that also wants a happy ending.
This book somehow reminds me what life is, when we struggle with difficult choices, making mistakes, and looking for our happiness. Either its fantasy or the reality, life is an adventurous journey.
