Overview: I’d say this book is a perfect series to read when you are looking for a more in-depth, long term adventure. Sometimes it’s kind of annoying to read single-book fantasy stories because they can’t capture all of the adventures that need to happen in such a world. Luckily for us, Brandon Mull has trapped all of that magical goodness into this amazing series! I would recommend this to people grades six and up. There was some blood and stabbing and murderous threats and stuff, but other than that it wasn’t too bad mature-topics wise.

What’s it about? Siblings Kendra and Seth arrive at their grandparents’ house expecting a completely boring summer, until they discover mythical creatures hiding in the woods! Turns out that their grandparents are really caretakers of a safe haven for these creatures: Fablehaven.

My thoughts: Wow! Everything is so well connected and plotted out perfectly. The writing could not have been better. Everything is really descriptive, and it will make you feel like you are running from monsters right alongside Kendra and Seth!
