The UnFairy Tale by Shari Lane

A motley crew of adventurers battles the evil Wamlock. Their story is far from perfect (the hero is cursed with a no-happily-ever-after clause, the heroine refuses to act like a proper princess), but it’s a perfect escape for Amanda and her friends, struggling with their own real-life troubles: Clarence the Bug-Eyed Creep, family crises, and Way Too Much Homework. In the end, the Amanda-in-the-fairy-tale and the real Amanda make surprising discoveries, and everyone gets a little closer to that elusive happy ending.
