Fablehaven, Book 2: Rise of the Evening Star

Book two of Fablehaven opens up new adventures in the typical "second book" manner. The first book seemed to bring things to a conclusion. However, new adventures are now coming. The book starts with the children at school. It seems pretty normal until a hideous boy shows up in Kendra's class. Only it turns out that only she can see his ugliness. Everyone else sees him as super cute. But once they try to kiss him, they are repulsed by his breath. 

Things continue on with further adventures. It becomes difficult to determine who is good and who is bad. Multiple times they think they are helping the "good guys", only discover they are working on the bad team. There are also plenty of adventures, with invisibility, fear potions, shrinking, and trading batteries with satyrs. There is some sly humor as well as fun adventure that opens up more things than it closes.
