My Rating: A
More Twisted Tales. Of these two, I'm surprised to say that I enjoyed the Cinderella one more than the Peter Pan one. Generally, with this series, I've had issues with the classic fairy tale princess ones more, but So This Is Love did better than the others have, and I found it very enjoyable. Straight on Till Morning was good, but I've never been a huge fan of the Disney Peter Pan, and there are some distinct issues with the world that the story couldn't work past. I did enjoy the actual friendship between Wendy and Tinkerbell, and I enjoyed the end of her story in this far more than in the original story, but I don't think this is one I would pick up again.
Still, if you've been reading these, and if you enjoy these two tales, these are as fun as the others. And I'm finding myself wanting to try some of the other Disney-licensed tales to see what they're like as well. We'll see which ones I end up picking up.
