I needed a new book to listen to. I find it easier to listen to stories I'm generally familiar with. A retelling of Aladdin? ok I'm game.

If I had a paper copy, I'd skim to find the point. There's not much I can say that others haven't already said. It's 1/4 exact movie description, 3/4 bad fanfiction. The characters are one dimensional, and it's clearly written by someone who isn't middle eastern.
A dark and twisted take on the Disney version of Aladdin. A lot better than the first book in the series, “Once Upon A Dream”. Very enjoyable!
It wasn't bad, but it wasn't good either. xD
I did enjoy it. It was quite refreshing to see how the story could go if Jafar got the lamp.
