The Unusual Suspects
The Unusual Suspects | Michael Buckley
9 posts | 34 read | 7 to read
For Sabrina Grimm, living in a community of fairytale characters means always being ready for trouble. And something is definitely wrong at her new school. The adults seem too angry, the kids seem too sleepy and the gym teacher likes dodgeball far too much. Of course, her little sister, Daphne, is having the time of her life. (Who wouldn't with Snow White for a teacher-she's so good with little people!) But when Sabrina's teacher, Mr Grumpner, is found dangling in a giant spider web, even sunny Daphne's convinced that Ferryport Landing Elementary has a monster problem. Can the Sisters Grimm solve the crime?

My scholars continue to amaze me! The level of reading and the way they give reviews has me excited and extremely proud. I‘ve never heard of this author but after my scholar gave her review, I was ready to read it now!

Traci1 I love these books. 2y

Second book in the series, and lots of action leading up to a cliffhanger (whole series does this, btw). Sabrina is angry, furious even, for most of the book, and her distrust of Everafters turns into full-blown bigotry and paranoia. The sisters are starting school, only to get pulled into a gruesome mystery. Will they ever be able to focus on finding their parents? #SeriesRead2021 #MGMarch

Unusual is a relative term-what‘s unusual to one human may be usual to another.

I had a good laugh at Book Riot‘s ‘unusual books‘ list

Ruthiella I loved Bachelder‘s The Throwback Special (and I don‘t even like football 🏈). I should try his “unusual “ book too. I‘d probably like it too!😀 5y

I've read a lot of "modern" adaptations of Grimm's fairytales lately. This one was nice, but I've read better ones. The sisters Grimm (descendants of the brothers) have to solve crimes among the fairytale characters living in our times. Didn't realize that this is the second of a series until the first 100 pages, which I consider positive. The open ending in this one was a bit scary though.

We are in the middle of this one as our bedtime read. Checking them out from the library but I think we will purchase the series when the 10th anniversary editions come out in May. This is a first read for me, so my daughter and I get to share the first read experience 😊

Really enjoyed this second installment in the series. Sabrina was a bit whiny so I'm glad I opted to read this one instead of listen to it on audiobook. This one does end on a cliffhanger, so have the next one handy if you dislike those.
