Poor Unfortunate Soul: A Tale of the Sea Witch by Serena Valentino
1.0
Initially I rated this as a 4 as to not be mean... Then 3... And then I realized I rated the other two books in the series a 3 and that this one was definitely not on their level. I had high hopes for this one i’m not going to lie. Ariel was my favorite princess growing up and even though my preferences has changed (*cough* rapunzel and moana *cough*) mermaids are still one of my favorite topics in the world. So yeah I was hoping for a lot.
Although Ursula has never been my favorite I do have to admit the idea for her backstory is more than interesting. Problem we got more fact than action. I won’t say too much but we got to know about 50% of her family and even that was beyond confusing. I just wanted a lot more and unfortunately it wasn’t given.
And for the love of god can we drop the tulip girl oh my god where is her relevance to the story? I understand the nanny part of it all, but why is Tulip there? What’s the point of her whining and pining?
This is a messy review which reflects the content in the books. Messy and very confusing. I don’t know where it starts or begins and it keeps giving us threads that I pull and pull but it all leads to dead ends. It does seem like the author has some sort of idea behind it all, something that ties it all together, which is where the excitement lies. Hopefully I’m right. I guess we’ll see where the next book takes me.
