Poor Unfortunate Soul: A Tale of the Sea Witch by Serena Valentino

4.0

This book is the third instalment of the villain series all about Ursula’s backstory and how she came to be so vengeful, full of hate and power hungry. I enjoyed this book particularly learning more about the relationship between Ursula and Triton, and how the string of events that unfolded throughout the progression of the book influenced who she became in the end.
I also loved that it made emotion from the characters such a vital part of the storytelling, allowing you to fully experience their minds and journeys! I also loved the originality the author showed in this book really making it her own, whilst delivering lots of little twists and turns to the story that kept you guessing and wrapped up in the mystery!!!
The ending of this book appears to set up the next instalment of the series which I am excited to read! I would definitely recommend this series overall as it offers enjoyable backstories for well known villains, often with a dark twist that gives you a different perspective on them !!!!
