Sally's Lament: A Twisted Tale

The nightmare before Christmas isn’t one of my favorite movies but this story was just perfect. Everything got tied up nicely in the end. Would definitely recommend this one from the Twisted Tale series

My daughter love this anything to keep a kid interested in reading is always a bonus

Sally is the MC in this retelling. Falls down the Christmas tree and finds Christmas instead of Jack. Sally and Jack must rescue the toys of Christmas World and stop the evil elf from taking over and hurting the toys and citizens of Christmas Town. This was my first twisted/wicked tale from the series so I wasn't expecting much, but this was really cute. It was tied nice in all together. The beginner recap WILL bore you a bit if you are a long time fan. If you're a deep or critical thinking type of reader this book mirrors McCarthyism to scares others into "falling in line" to establish a Utopian type society while teaching the lesson it's ok to be different and there is different types of beauty. I would read this before "Long Live the Pumpkin Queen" (the book about where Sally came from). It's a great combination. This book was a SUPER quick read. I got it done in an hour. Physical copies: Each page is decorated/printed to look like a used haunted book with decent sized font

Great read!! I found this to be adventurous, loving, engaging and humorous. I found these “twisted tales” saga books are a wonderful “what if” storyline for anyone that is finding an extension of original stories they love. Definitely worth it.

Cool

A very fine book. A twist of the original Nightmare story, while keeping close to the original.

It was an amazing book .. I really loved this twisted take on the book

Love love love! Must have read for the NMBC fan in your life!!
