Honestly pleasantly surprised by the book. I think a lot of it has do with the fact that I listened to the audiobook and the narrator did a great job, but I think this storyline was also much better.
It's still not the best writing and I think the whole concept of all the Disney villains existing in one world is ridiculous, but since this was more focused on the Odd Sisters, which are an original concept, it was definitely more enjoyable. Also, surprisingly, the Odd Sisters weren't in this story a lot and since they annoyed me so much in the previous books this was a lot better. With the book ending the way it did, I'm more hopeful with the series going forward now that my biggest issues are kind of out of the way.
