A fun read for a tween, but without the darkness of the original fairy tale, it has no emotional impact. (  ) JanetNoRules | Sep 17, 2018 | A modern spin on a classic fairy tale. Mirror, mirror, on the basement wall.... after moving to a new house, Abby and her brother Jonah discover an antique mirror that transports them into the Snow White fairy tale. Once there, they accidentally change events in the tale! In order for Snow White to get her happy ending, it's up to them to make things right. This is the first book in the magical “Whatever After” series. mcmlsbookbutler | Sep 14, 2018 | 3 in CLAN, none in CC Cheryl_in_CC_NV | Jun 5, 2016 | I was so excited when I first heard about this series I was so excited. I love fairy tales and I had really liked other books by Mlynowski so I was pretty much sold on it...unfortunately I didn't really enjoy the book as much as I wanted to. I found Abby's attitude extremely obnoxious--to the point where I actually stopped reading for a while and debated whether it was worth finishing it. In the end b/c it was so short I did read the whole thing. I felt like there was some misinformation on what a judge's job actually is--the text seemed to me to imply that judge's decide the outcomes of cases. I did like the information provided on wills and how that played out as part of the outcome. The ending was also extremely abrupt. I understand that this is part of a series but I felt like there was a better way to go about the ending so that it would feel more finished. I don't think I'm going to continue with the series.

 A magic mirror, a slightly bossy sister and her inquisitive 7-year-old brother captivate in this rollicking remake of a classic fairy tale. ...
