In Rozakis’s latest (Dreadful), Vivian and Daniel’s daughter Aria is sent to Grimoire Grammar School after being bitten and turning into a werewolf. One would expect things to be quite different at a school full of various magical creatures, but Vivian soon finds out that being a parent on the PTA here is not much different than at any other school. Between the drama and cliques, Vivian is struggling to fit in among the other parents. She wants Aria not only to have friends and playdates but also to be able to continue on at Grimoire Grammar, where kindergarteners must pass a series of tests to prove their abilities in order to move up to first grade. Meanwhile, strange things keep happening, which are causing the community to panic that their prophesied downfall has finally arrived.
VERDICT Full of humor and relatable parenting moments, this is a must-read for those who grew up loving stories of magical schools and are looking for a new fantasy world.
