Well I am VERY glad I bought this second hand - it certainly feels like it's cashing in on the success of the series. I don't even remember who the majority of the characters mentioned are, and all the ones that mean anything mostly have REALLY crappy lives after the series ends. Or there is an entire page for one character, who gets one line about them e.g.:

[...] ended up with gonorrhea.

Wow. The only redeeming feature was the pretty illustrations for each letter. A book for only the most hardcore of fans.

Plus I will never get over the ending of Dead Ever After... grr.

Some of the entries were really cute, some were really lame, but the majority of my feelings can be summed up with...

This is not really a book, in my opinion. It is a kind of tiny re-cap per character, some I didn't even remember when I read about them. Some only had one sentence, and then over to the next page, and the next character.

I read the whole thing while taking a bath, so it probably took me around half an hour... And I was really disappointed! Good thing I just got it for my kindle, because I have asked for a refund!
