I was really excited when I seen this book came out, I really enjoyed getting to learn more about Sally and read from her perspective. It was an interesting twist on the original novel and I don't think it feels to far fetched like I thought it might. It was a really great read for Halloween.

Whimsical. Resonating. Empowering. I’ve adored Shea’s previous books and this one is no exception. Picking up with Sally & Jack’s wedding right at the end of The Nightmare Before Christmas, LLtPQ explores the anxiety of stepping into new expectations, discovering your place in the world, and drawing on the power of dreams. LLtPQ is diverse and comforting, and is completely appropriate for younger YA readers, even upper MG, while still being enjoyable for adults.
Minor: Kidnapping, Panic attacks/disorders, and Gaslighting
