So, I was doing ILL's last Saturday, and one of the ones I sent out was book 5 of this series. They were on a display at the end of one of the aisles, and the covers looked interesting, so I picked up book 1 (The Fairy Tale Detectives) for me, and finished it this Saturday.
The series is about sisters (7 and 11 in the first book) who are descended of the Grimm brothers, and after their parents disappear and they go to live with their grandmother, they discover that their family is in the business of investigating fairy tales. So the book is populated with fairy tale characters living in a small town on the Hudson in upstate New York. It's a fun book, definitely written for the upper elementary/middle school set, but very enjoyable yet to older readers.
