To me, this one reads like a classic Eastern European fairytale.
And it sort of is! A fairytale retelling of The Goose Girl, mainly from the perspective of Vanja, the servant disguised as a princess and not the "goose girl" who is the actual princess, Gisele.
Vanja has some interesting backstory, being the goddaughter of Fortune and Death and having a bejeweled curse placed on her by another god which complicates her deceit portraying a princess.

It sounded like an amazing idea, a murder mystery solved by 18 different characters, from 18 different writers, however Septimus Dropworth was a bad man, and some of his co-workers were bad people and really someone should have realised that there needed to be better governance of a magical school. Both of my parents were teachers and I know they didn't always see eye to eye with some of their managers but if they had noticed some flagrant abuse of power as happened here someone would have complained, at some stage, and if they didn't complain someone would have noticed that there was a lot of teachers leaving.

Yes it's meant for teens and honestly being told the story from the point of view of 18 angsty teens became a bit of a "who is this person I'm reading" and what happened to the last set of insights, I was drawn through the story, I'm just not sure that it worked as well as it might.
