As a massive disney fan and a lover of all things Tim Burton I was so excited to read this spin on Sally's life as the pumpkin queen. Unfortunately I was sorely disappointed. The story was boring, the characters became so unlikeable and in the end I literally skimmed over the last few chapters because I genuinely didn't want to waste more time than I already had but didn't want to DNF after reading three quarters in the hope it would somehow get better. I will say it has taught me an important lesson and that is, that the disney retelling most likely are not for me.
