A high white moon cast its light on the city below as brightly as the sun was said to shine in northern countries. White mud-brick buildings gleamed like pebbles from a faraway beach.

pickBook one of the Twisted Tales Series. As a fan of Princess Jasmine (still not as much as Belle, my fellow book worm) this take on the classic story was original, while still keeping to the basic plot of the OG. A definite good start to the series. #ATwistedTaleSeries #PrincessJasmine #Aladdin #AWholeNewWorld
pickA retelling of Aladdin. Yasmine‘s forced to marry before her father dies. She already loves a servant, but her father‘s assistant wants to keep the power he has, so he‘ll have to marry the girl he detests. What happens when their hate turns into something else?
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This one was a good retelling. I‘m not an Aladdin fan, but I liked the enemies to lovers aspect. I just got annoyed by the FMC & I wanted a tiny more spice.

pickAladdin is a streetwise thief that finds himself under the tutelage of a world-renown illusionist. He is escorted deep into the deserts in search of a treasure beyond his wildest dreams, and discovers instead something far more valuable—a destiny.
This was a pretty good story. A steampunk novella that can be read in a couple hours.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

pick#SchoolSpirit Day 28: This Cut #Paper Book Aladdin is hands-down stunning. The primary focus, here, I believe, is making the story come alive through the shadowy edges, the fine lines, and the intricate lace-like edges that are enough to make any bibliophile sigh in delight – and for that, I commend Agnese Baruzzi‘s vision. My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-9PD
He stays with me, and together we watch the sun stain the sea and sky a thousand and one shades of gold. My thumb rubs the ring on my finger, it‘s dents and contours as familiar to me now as my hand.
So this is what it feels like to have your wishes come true.

pickWhy is it in these books that the “happily ever after” men start out as jerks? I guess it makes it more exciting and intense. I liked this story. It‘s way better than the Disney version of Aladdin. 😘 #SeriesLove2024 @TheSpineView @Andrew65
From BookTok sensation Emily McIntire comes a dark and delicious fractured fairy tale reimagining of Aladdin.
