The Teenager's Guide to Surviving a Fairy Tale

This is the second book in Coral Isabella Aurora's unconnected young adult comedy series, and it features hilarious references to characters in the first book, The Teenager's Guide to Surviving a Horror Film, which was a 2020 IPNE young adult award finalist. I am a spirit. No, not a spirit guide. I am Astrid, the spirit of a star. After Astrid, the celestial princess and north star, is cast from heaven to be a narrator, she falls into a wishing well. Emmie, an innocent thirteen-year-old genius, makes a wish on Astrid's star that changes her classmates' lives forever. They're stolen into a magical world with wondrous people. They encounter eight dwarves running A'Dwarfable Diamond Couture, the owners of Fabulous Fairy Godmother Boutique, Queen Scarlet of the Wolves, murderous Prince Edwin, purrfect Prince Leo, and more. During cases of mistaken identity, the teens trade roles with classic characters. But their quirky personalities change the fairy tale's script. Usagi is a Judo master, Jake is a painfully shy Korean flower boy, Francis is in love with himself, Emmie is a bullied genius, Danielle is prideful and dramatic, Aurora has a service dog named Prince, Kris is a kleptomaniac, Sammie is a surfer, and Sunflower is a hippie. Together, will they grant Emmie's wish? Or will they be stuck in a fairy tale forever? Can they win the battle in the land of Fragmented Glass against the Ice Queen?
