The re-telling of “Aladdin” treads a fine line between a replica of the original source and fan-fiction, it is a lot better, and surprisingly more inspired, than it could have been.

This book was absolutely fantastic but

the end was afull as they destroyed the premiums of the book and made it extremely hard to finish

I would never read this book again but the beginning was good.
