I had this on pre-order for a long time. Every time I saw it, I thought "What is that exactly?" I just got it today and it is a novelization of Equestria Girls, but some small things are different. If you've seen Equestria Girls, you know the story. It just changes some things like when Sunset Shimmer tries to frame Twilight with the photoshopped pictures. In the movie Sunset shows Luna the destroyed gym alone then Luna interrogates Twilight and Flash comes in and clears it all up. In the book, Twilight and the others are there when Sunset Shimmer shows Luna the gym. Sunset Shimmer is also there as Luna's talking to Twilight. Then Flash comes in and clears it up (he doesn't know Sunset Shimmer was the one who did it so she doesn't get blamed right there) and then she leaves. Plus, in the movie the first human version of her friends Twilight meets is Fluttershy. In the book it's Rainbow Dash. Nothing major or story changing but it was neat. Or remember the part in the movie where they say that Sunset Shimmer really embarrassed Rarity when she tried to run against her for Princess of the Fall Formal last year? In the movie it doesn't say what she did but in the book it does (I won't spoil it). Also, since this is a book, there are no songs. So, the cafeteria scene with them getting all the students on Twilight's side with a song is replaced with them just handing out the ears and tail things. They all take it to it really well. The football team takes extra convincing but they put them on after Rainbow Dash talks to them and the quaterback does it first. And remember when Twilight said she was going to talk about human things to show the students how she fits in but never does because everyone's laughing at her as soon she comes out of the library because of the video Sunset Shimmer made? In the book she actually does talk to some people and says some things. Like when she's talking to a football player she goes "Offense sells tickets but defense wins games!" There are also some some little cool things like Vinyl Scratch playing a remix of an old favorite song all the students know called "Raise This Barn" at the dance. Fluttershy gives Twilight exact directions to Celestia's office rather than Twilight having to come back to find out. Fluttershy uses napkins to clean Twilight off after she spills juice on her in the movie while in the book Granny Smith tosses her a rag. There's no scene where Applejack wonders how Twilight knew her name since she never said it because Pinkie greeted her and Big Mac by their names when they came in. Sunset Shimmer threatens to destroy the portal with a big hammer in the movie while in the book she uses a golf club. Small things like that are all over the place in this book. There's also a bunch of activity pages at the end that are meant for kids. Like writing down what friendship means to them. Do they know anybody (like Sunset Shimmer) that is really mean but probably just lonely? And what's the best way to show that person they want to be friends? Actually, that can be applied to adults as well. Anyone can learn a lesson from this. I'm sure everyone reading this knows at least one really mean person. The actual story is 216 pages and there's 16 pages of activities. The last page is an ad for the Equestria Girls movie. I didn't really see the point in making a novelization of this at first but it changed things enough to keep it interesting. Some lines are the exact same as the movie, but most aren't. Most scenes aren't either. It's sort of like a slightly changed alternate reality.... of another alternate reality... >.> It was really fun to read. I'd recommend if you want a slightly different take on Equestria Girls.

Lovely book. Big letters and illustrations

I'm an old My Little Pony who watched the movie long before reading the book. I have to say I love the slight but interesting changes between the Equestria Girls movie and this book like Twilight running into Rainbow Dash first at the trophy case before running into Fluttershy and Sunset Shimmer in the hall. Not to mention having the book tell who Sunset Shimmer went after during the Spring Fling and what she did to embaress her for example. Not to mention that the books allow one to know what Twilight is thinking about the strange new world and body she find herself in when she not speaking aloud. While when I saw the movie I thought the story took place right after Magical Mystery Cure in season 3 and Princess Twilight in season 4 the fact that in part one of Princess Twilight the new Allicorn tells her five friends not to call her princess when they start going so now makes me wonder if this story takes place somewhere between the episodes of season 4 instead along with their reference to the first MLP novel Crystal Heart.
