The Ever After High series by Shannon Hale launched in 2013 with a cluster of character-focused short stories — Briar Beauty’s Story, Apple White’s Story, Raven Queen’s Story, Madeline Hatter’s Story, Ashlynn Ella’s Story, and Hunter Huntsman’s Story all appeared the same year. The Storybook of Legends (2013) and The Unfairest of Them All (2013) form the main novel entries alongside those introductory pieces.
The series expanded considerably through 2014 and into 2017, mixing full novels like A Wonderlandiful World (2014) with activity books, doodle books, sticker books, and scrapbooks. Later entries include The Secret Diary of Raven Queen and The Secret Diary of Apple White (both 2017), diary-format books that return to two of the series’ central characters. With 24 titles spanning 2013 to 2017, new readers are best served starting with Briar Beauty’s Story to get introduced to the world before moving into the longer novel entries.
