The Hero’s Guide to Saving Your Kingdom
The Hero's Guide to Saving Your Kingdom by Christopher Healy My rating: 3 of 5 stars I like reading new spins on classic fairy tales, and this book was a good one.

I started with book 5 not knowing who any of the characters were or their backstories. Now that I have finally read the first one, it makes me appreciate what happens … Continue reading Spy School
