Fablehaven (Fablehaven, 1)

I'm pretty sure I've read this before, but I could not find any record. Two kids' parents are going on a cruise. Their parents dump them off at the grandparents house out in the middle of nowhere. (The other grandparents recently died, and their wish was for the adult family members to take a cruise.) Grandma is nowhere to be seen and Grandpa has strict rules for the kids' safety. Alas, the boy (Seth) quick breaks the rules. The girl (Kendra) works through the puzzles and eventually discovers the secret through the "legit" method.

Grandpa's house is a preserve of magical monsters. Once you drink the special milk, you can see all the fairies. There is special magic related to them. Seth ends up angering some fairies and leading to some bad things happening. Eventually, Kendra asks the fairies for help and helps get things back to normal.

I found myself just screaming at Seth to stop doing stupid things.
