The Forbidden Wish by Jessica Khoury
4.0
I love retellings.. And Aladdin has always been in my top favorite Disney movies, so of course I had to pick this up- but I definitely didn't expect to love this book as much as I did. Oh my, this story was just so enchanting.
The characters were freakin' AMAZING. Our main protagonist was so lovely and wise.. And also a badass! Our Aladdin was snarky and adorable - just like I wanted. The side characters were just as amazing (and yay for all the girl power!).
The plot was so interesting. There were so many things that happened that I didn't expect, and so many things that just wove together to give us an amazing conclusion. The romance was great. The friendship aspect was beautiful.
Why does this have to be a standalone?! I WANT MORE!
