A Whole New World: A Twisted Tale

O livro é lindo demais!! Eu to apaixonada na capa dele 😍😍 Por dentro a diagramação é normal, bem tranquilo de ler, não li ainda então não posso opinar nisso mas de resto vale bastante a pena pelo preço, por ser um livro em inglês!

I actually managed to read the whole story in one setting and I gotta say, I'm glad I purchased this book. Have a hard time putting it down each time I pick it up. Can't wait to add a few more of these tales to the collection. Can we get a graphic novel version of this story someday too?

This is the "what if" retelling done right. It takes a story you think you know and flips it into something darker, richer, and way more interesting. I went in for nostalgia and stayed because it actually gives its heroine agency, stakes, and a whole arc that feels earned. What made it five stars for me is how it centers Jasmine. She's clever, brave, and furious in the best way, and watching her navigate a world gone wrong is so satisfying. The worldbuilding expands in ways that feel natural, the tension builds fast, and there are some genuinely surprising turns that had me gasping. If you love Disney twisted tales, feminist retellings, political intrigue in a familiar fantasy setting, and stories where the princess saves herself, read this. It's fun, fast, surprisingly emotional, and it made me fall in love with this world all over again. An easy, enthusiastic five stars.

The first part of the book is basically a like for like of the film. Once Aladdin retrieves the lamp and Jaffar obtains the lamp it goes from bad to worse for Agrabah, with the city falling under a dictatorship with Jasmine running the revolution. It is a fun book that is in keeping with the film but carves it’s own story.

Avec des " si " on referais le monde comme on le dit si souvent. Je suis bilingue donc j'ai pus commander ce livre en anglais ( apparemment il a pas encore été traduit ). La lecture ( en ce qui me concerne ) est facile et plaisante. J'aime les histoires modifier avec un petit détail qui change tout ! Attention cependant , dans cette version d'Aladin , certaines description / action pourrais choquer les plus jeunes.
