A World Without Princes by Soman Chainani

When Agatha wishes she'd chosen a different Happy Ending, she accidentally reopens the gates to the School for Good and Evil. But when the girls return, they notice that the world they knew has changed. Witches and princesses reside at the School for Girls, where they've been inspired to live a life without princes, while Tedros and the boys are camping in Evil's old towers. A war is brewing between the schools, but can Agatha and Sophie restore peace? Can Sophie stay good with Tedros on the hunt? And whose heart does Agatha's belong to -- her best friend or her prince?

Most sequels claim to show consequences of the actions of the first but feel very contrived or silly. This actually felt like a real progression of characters aging (Boys!) and their reactions to each other's changes. I really enjoyed the book plot AND characters (usually one or the other) and can't wait to read the resolution.

So it seems that a happy ending for one person means exactly the opposite for another...
I really liked this book because it goes a little more deeply into the complex relationships between the characters.
Agatha's choice at the end of the first book changed everything. Suddenly, good vs evil is not so important anymore. The battle here is boys vs girls. And so, ever and never girls as well as ever and never boys have to work together to defeat a common enemy.
In this book Agatha gets to choose again and things get even more complicated. I hope that at some point in the series Agatha will realize that she doesn't have to choose between her prince and her friend. She already chose one and wished for the other. I'm pretty sure the same thing is going to happen again. Can't she have both?
