A decent read. Aladdin was never my favorite Disney story growing up, but I enjoyed the “what if?” idea behind this storyline. I liked that Jasmine had more of a role than your stereotypical damsel in distress.

While this is classified as a young adult novel, I did find some of the writing to give more of a juvenile feel. In my opinion, the ending was just ok.
