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

4.0

This story was really good and gave a good insight into Ursula's back story regarding her relationship to Triton and why she was filled with as much hate as she did. It tied in really well with the Little Mermaid film and even had some scene's from the film in it as a whole. For the most part though, it was going alongside the film, giving you a "behind the scene's" feel as to what was contributing to parts of the film, what was going on in the background and even if there was a reason something happened in a certain way due to the control of someone else. I felt like compared to the last 2 in the series, this one concentrated a lot more on the sideline stories, such as the odd sisters and Circe, Tulip and Nanny etc. Maleficent is alluded to quite heavily in this one too which I felt was good to lead me into the next book a bit more seamlessly. Looking forward to the next one in the series!
