Occasionally, he’d stick the peach-colored paper in my face and say, “You gotta see this one.” I’ll be the first to admit that hers was a lot more glamorous.Īlthough I was a devotee of Sex And The City (mostly because I was a Sarah Jessica Parker fan, Patricia Fields fashion disciple, and NYC loyalist), I’d never read the book version or the New York Observer column (1994-96) that it sprouted from, although my husband Neil kept telling me that I should do so. Bushnell and I are the same age, we took different paths in life and moved through Manhattan in totally different ways. I recently went to see Candace Bushnell at Café Carlyle, the New York icon’s one-woman show where she recalled the story of her life and career, and calls to mind the New York of yesteryear that was actually worth writing about.Įven though Ms. I got a glimpse of the road less traveled and am glad I didn’t take it.

Partly because I wasn't alive when it was in theaters. Many thanks to Disney for sending me a copy in exchange for an honest review There is a reader for every book, sadly, I just wasn't the reader for this one. Then again, I could end up being completely in the minority opinion on this, so, bottom line, if this sounds interesting to you, pick it up! I think for people who are hella nostalgic over that movie, this book just won't have the right tone. I think maybe if you aren't as familiar with The Little Mermaid animated Disney film, you may actually enjoy this one more. It was just the story focus was much more political and there were odd little details everywhere. Y'all, Ursula slays, so I am fine with that. It began years after the final events of The Little Mermaid, the twist being that Ursula had won and was now married to Prince Eric. Then one plot element will change, be 'twisted', and the rest of the book will explore what could have happened following the new plot twist. The other books I have read in the series follow the events of the Disney movies fairly closely in the beginning. The format of this one worked against it as well, IMO. I finished the lastest edition to the Twisted Tales line-up, Mirror, Mirror, last month and really enjoyed it.Ĭompared to that one, which does have a different author, this one felt very flat and forced. It makes me sad because I really love this Twisted Tales series as a whole.
