Ghoulfriends Forever is a brand-new Monster High series, introducing three new monster characters. As new students, the trio must navigate the bewildering array of cute monster boys, established cliques, and monster-rific subjects like Mad Science, G-ogre-phy, and Physical Deaducation. As if that weren't hard enough, something strange and sinister seems to be happening at the school. Popular girls like Frankie Stein and Cleo de Nile are acting weird-and all signs point to everyone's new favorite teacher, Miss Sylphia Flapper. Can the new GFFs expose the fave as a fraud, or will they succumb to peer pressure?

Gr 4-6-Part of Mattel's toy, website, and television franchise, this series title features three teens new to Monster High. Rochelle (a gargoyle), Robecca (a robot), and Venus (a Venus flytrap) become friends as they learn their way around the campus. They constantly encounter obstacles, from troll hall monitors who may or may not eat them, to teachers with severe emotional problems, to cute boys who aren't their boyfriends. Every class, every location in the school, and every character's name is a pun. The girls check out books in the Libury, shop at the Maul, and go to Physical Deaducation. They are adjusting well until a new teacher begins casting a spell over the whole school, and they set out to find a way to stop her. Few readers over the age of 11 will be amused by the overly cheesy attempts at humor and the cookie-cutter plot. Black-and-white illustrations throughout add to the cutesy feel and help readers picture all of the strange creatures in the story. This book will have a small audience.-Mandy Laferriere, Staley Middle School, Frisco, TX

This spinoff of Lisi Harrison's Monster High series follows three new monsters: Rochelle, a gargoyle; Venus, a Venus flytrap; and Robecca, a robot prone to steaming. The "ghoulfriends" investigate some strange happenings at the school that appear to revolve around a popular teacher. The thin story primarily consists of bad monster-related puns; unfinished-looking manga-style illustrations accompany the forced, awkward writing.(Copyright 2013 by The Horn Book, Incorporated, Boston.
