![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Was I the only one who thought the romance between these two was forced? I felt like Aladdin would have taken up with any beautiful girl that crossed his path if she batted her eyes at him. They have this deeper connection and understanding that I really wanted to see emphasized in this novel. Economic factors separate them socially but when they are together, the sparks just fly. I thought she had the best character development of anyone–but the character depth was lacking for everyone so that isn’t saying much.Īs I’m sure you can guess, Aladdin and Jasmine are one of my favourite Disney couples. It was just her attitude and comments about certain things that rubbed me the wrong way. I can forgive her ignorance about the outside world, that’s not the problem. She’s a bit of a dud of a character honestly. She’s a strong character in the original movie and the idea that I’d get to see that be elevated in this book? Awesome. Plus, she has a tiger people!Īfter I read the synopsis and saw that Jasmine is touted as revolutionary, I was super happy. She’s intelligent and quick I loved that she attempts to save herself by tricking Jafar. In the movie I always respected Jasmine’s drive to live her own life. If you ask me who my favourite Disney Princess is, I’d say it’s Jasmine (well my answer is more complicated than that but nonetheless, I am a huge Jasmine fan). I’ve probably watched Aladdin 100 times in my life so I’m pretty familiar with it all and I didn’t need the word for word recap. However, it was a little boring to essentially listen to the movie without the actual movie flashing before me. As a massive fan of the movie, I didn’t mind so much. It was a great play-by-play for the movie if you’ve never seen it–minus the amazing music of course. –The first 25% is just the movie in book form– Note: I read this as an audiobook so I say “listen” a lot. Did you like the plot changes? The romance? What surprised you? What angered you? And what do you think will happen next?Ī Whole New World by Liz Braswell | A Twisted Tale SERIESous Spoilers: A feature where we discuss what happened in our favourite (or maybe not so favourite) books. ![]()
