Waiting on Wednesday ~ Promchanted by Morgan Matson
Evening everyone~
Happy Wednesday all! Middle of the week!! I hope everyone is doing great, happy welcome to a new Waiting on Wednesday!
And today I am eagerly waiting for the newest Morgan Matson and I Just HOPE it is back to what I love again. Because I really loved Since You’ve Been Gone, Amy & Roger’s Epic Detour, Second Chance Summer, and The Unexpected Everything. But Save the Date and Take Me Home Tonight both weren’t for me. But I am so so hoping that this fairy tale retelling featuring real fantasy is something I will absolutely love. Yes, real fantasy. Because we have to characters who go to Disneyland, enter the Sleeping Beauty’s Castle and open a hidden door only to land in real Sleeping Beauty’s story! With fairies. Bad stepmothers. And more! And I am just so in. Plus, I do love that while Stella isn’t so happy with Reece… she is also kinda into him. So um, enemies to lovers? YES YES YES! Plus, that cover is just so adorable and fun.
So, this girl is very much crossing all her fingers in the hopes that she found another Morgan Matson to love and enjoy and savour for years!
Two modern teens.
One classic fairy tale.
Absolutely no cell service.Stella Griffin doesn’t believe in fairy tales. Ever since her boyfriend dumped her three weeks before the prom— not ideal timing—she’s convinced every love story is a lie.
She’s ready to skip the prom entirely. But she and her best friend, Nisha, have been planning for years to celebrate at Disneyland before the prom . . . an OG OC tradition. But even being all dressed up at the Happiest Place on Earth isn’t salvaging Stella’s night. Nisha has brought along her friend Reece to join them, and he and Stella do not get along. They’re like oil and water. Cats and dogs. Aladdin and Jafar. And so what if Reece is, fine, kind of cute? Stella’s over it all. Happily-ever-afters, true love’s kisses, princes on white horses. It’s not real.
. . . Or is it?
Because when Stella and Reece push through a hidden door in Sleeping Beauty’s castle, they’re not in Anaheim anymore. They’re in the story. In Sleeping Beauty —with Aurora and Phillip, the fairies, Maleficent, and extremely intelligent woodland creatures.
Unfortunately, they’ve landed right in the middle of the story—which throws things off. Suddenly, Aurora and Phillip are meeting before they were supposed to. The fairies are suspicious of the interlopers, and even Maleficent gets word of their arrival.
Stella and Reece will have to put aside their differences, make sure Aurora and Phillip fall in love, and get the story back on track—because if things don’t end the way they’re supposed to . . . they might never get home.
Will they be able to pull off a fairy-tale ending? And will Stella and Reece get a happily-ever-after of their own?
