Magic and Other Misdemeanors is the fifth book in the Sisters Grimm series by Michael Buckley. The stories chronicle the adventures of Sabrina and Daphne Grimm, descendants of the Brothers Grimm. Sabrina and Daphne get into numerous scrapes as they struggle to solve mysteries involving fairy tale creatures. Each book could stand on its own, but I'd suggest starting with the first in the series, The Fairy Tale Detectives.
Magic and Other Misdemeanors was a fast and fun read, but it wasn't quite as good as the previous books. There was little character development, and I was left feeling like Buckley is dragging the story out as long as is possible, which is understandable from a financial standpoint, but could lead to boredom in the long run. I would like to see more resolution in book six. Overall, it was an OK addition to a more than OK series.
