Cloaked is an enjoyable, fun, and adventurous book. Alex Flinn is well known to write Fairy Tale Retellings and I've only read Beastly, which I really like. In this book, it's a mash-up fairy tales and most of them are unfamiliar to me (I only knew The Frog Prince). 
 The first half of this book is indeed fast paced and I'm enjoying the main character's quest as he helps a gorgeous Princess to save his brother who's cursed by a witch to become a Frog. Now the Frog Prince is missing, Princess Victoriana sees something in Johnny wherein she can trust him to do this magical quest. However, Johnny's deal with the Princess Victoriana ticked me off. He is a talented shoe-maker who is struggling financially and is in need for money to sustain his everyday expenses. When he succeeds this mission by saving the frog prince, he will be marrying the Princess as a reward. Okay? So he's blinded with money.. Never mind. I'm after the quest... take a chance having an adventure and hopefully Johnny gets on the right senses to truly love someone. 
 Halfway through of this book, it started to get dull. I don't know why I feel that.. Maybe because he keeps on running and get side-tracked by his main mission. Not that being side-tracked to help others is bad (they helped Johnny as well in exchange), it's just that everything beats around the bush. Don't get me wrong, I still like the way it ends I just wish that it focuses on ONE FAIRY TALE. Oh well, just enjoy the adventure. 
 P.S. 
 I don't like The Prince here. Who the hell calls his milady some cheesy names of various animals? 
 * Dainty Komodo Dragon 
 * My Dear Leetle Turtle 
 * My Tiny Newt 
 * My Leetle Anemone 
 I don't find it sweet. It's ridiculously cheesy and eye-rolling annoying.
