The Odd Sisters book review read in November 2022

Title: The Odd Sisters
Author: Serena Valentino
Number of pages: 288
Genre: Teen and young adult fantasy/folklore/fairytale
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This book dives into the odd sisters Lucinda, Ruby, and Martha and their doing in all the fairy tales we all know so well. They have messed with the lives of Ursula, Mother Gothel, the beast and even the wicked queen and their sister Cerci has had enough. She teams up with her cousin Snow White to try and better understand her sisters all while they are in the dreamscape trying to figure out how to escapes so they can continue to meddle in the lives of those who in their eyes they are helping. In Fairyland Nanny and Fairy God Mother heard of the odd sisters trying to bring back Maleficent while in the dreamscape hoping that in her dragon form, she can destroy Fairyland. I didn't really know what to expect when i started reading this book seeing as though its more about the Odd Sisters then any of the Disney villains but it's very well written and completely understandable. I think it's an interesting twist having there be witches behind all the villain's beginnings and how it fits so perfectly behind the original movies. I also really love the illustrations; this is the only book out of the series so far that has illustrations. This book does leave you in a bit of a cliffhanger, but it continues on in the next book, not right off the bat but you will be able to read more into it. Again, it was hard to find a flaw because I absolutely adore this series, others might disagree entirely. 

Pros: Well written 
Cons: Cliffhanger
Recommended to: Disney and fairy tale fans.
