The story started off so slow. It was like the first book all over again for me. I wanted to quit so bad but because I've enjoyed the series so far I persevered through. The three sisters were extra annoying to me. They seem to be young adults but acted like children. So naïve. They had on rose colored glasses about the world and it made the story hard to stomach at times. I enjoyed the reveals about their history and Gothel's history.
Of course, the odd sisters were at it again and took advantage. I knew Gothel was doomed once they showed up.
I will say I've never seen Tangled. I only know bits and pieces about the story of Rapunzel really so maybe that's why this villain's story didn't do it for me. I'm not familiar with her at all, but I was glad to be exposed to the story.
I'm looking forward to a story about just the odd sisters and Circe after them being the background characters for so long.
