I had never had the opportunity to read one of the “Twisted Tales” series books before this one, though a bunch of them were on my TBR list, so when the opportunity arose to read one about Tangled I was very excited. I enjoyed the movie of Tangled much more than many other Disney movies (full disclosure – I am not a big Disney nerd even though I am from SoCal), but there were still many aspects of the movie that made me slightly uncomfortable\/upset\/annoyed. This book fixed them all and gave me things I didn’t even realize I was missing! It still has all of the major characters from the film, but gives them personalities that I feel are more congruent with a deeper, darker storyline, which is much more up my alley. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and had a hard time putting it down. The only reason it took so long for me to finish it is because I kept having life get in the way of reading. I have already told multiple people to read it, and I am so looking forward to picking up other books in this series, even ones where I don’t like the source movies as much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While there were still some things that I was kind of iffy on, the book as a whole really outweighed any issues I had with it. It was a really enjoyable dark YA book with a storyline that was comfortable in its familiarity while being completely unique in many aspects as well so it didn’t feel stale. 5\/5<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
