Review: The Grimm Legacy


Hey!
So last week our school had a book-related fundraising event. Polly Shulman, along with other authors, were there to sign books. I bought her book, the Grimm Legacy, and I was lucky enough to get it signed. It is a really good book and I highly recommend it. It is sort of like a fantasy version of the Mysterious Benedict Society. The cover shows it as very fantasy, but it can really be enjoyed by lovers of any reading style. The book is about a girl who's teacher recommends her for a job at a respiratory, which is just like a library only it lends out items, especially old ones. She has to undergo certain tests to unlock privleges to certain rooms or take out certain items, and there is a secret room called the Grimm Collection, with items from the real Grimm fairy tales- that really  work. There's some solid romantic plotlines as well as a really imaginative story. I highly recommend this book. If you enjoy this book, try the Sisters Grimm series and the Mysterious Benedict Society (or if you like those, try reading this).
