A Whole New World by Liz Braswell

3.0

I had a hard time ranking "A Whole New World." On the one hand, I was enthralled throughout the book, came to love the characters, and wanted to know how everything would end. On the other hand, this book is kind of stupid. It is a dark retelling of a Disney movie - if anything, it's just a step above Disney fanfiction. There's literally a section of this book that involves Jafar torturing The Magic Carpet, which is weirdly fucked-up, but I guess in-character? The thing is, I liked this fanfiction (though I could have done without the carpet-torture) and I enjoyed every moment of it. It just won't win any Pulitzers.
