Conceal, Don't Feel: A Twisted Tale

Nice paperback. Daughters loved the story.

5 out of 5 stars for making me love Frozen!This was the 3rd book in the Twisted Tale that I've read, and I love it just as much as the others in the series.I will admit that Frozen isn't one of my favorites in the Disney archive, I thought that this one brought an interesting and beautiful twist to the story that we all know and love.Elsa, has become the Queen of her country and is just as alone, until one day, she finds the existence of the a girl named Anna and is determined to find out who she is.Anna, is the daughter of a baker in the village, who knows nothing of her true past until the King and Queen pass and she thrust into finding out her past, no matter the cost.The story was very well written, as most of the stories are in the Twisted series. I found myself enjoying this version of Frozen even more than the movie. I even found myself enjoying Kristoff and agreeing that he and Anna are truly meant to be. (I am a firm believer in that Hans is better, but that's got nothing to do with this review)In typical Disney fashion, the story is full of twists and turns and will keep you on the edge of your seat, what you thought you knew, you really didn't. And you find yourself hoping that it will still be an act of True Love that will thaw a frozen heart and bring happiness to Arendelle.

Haven’t had a chance to read it yet, but it looks super cute on my bookshelf!Love the cover design, and of course the smell of brand new book!!

I liked this book. It was a relaxing fun retelling of a favorite. It would have been a much better winter read, though. I read it in the summer. The heat didn't really put me in the story as much.It very closely follows the film, so if you are looking for a major twist like "Reflection," this one might not be for you. But I don't mind having only a few differences. I just enjoyed being in this world again.PROS: You get to spend more time with Elsa and Anna. These characters are true to the originals. We also get to spend more time with Olaf, so if you like him, read this. He shows up a lot more than he does in the film since Elsa spends years of this book with him in her room.CONS: For some, the story follows to closely to the original. Hans feels less evil.WRITING STYLE: Very simple. Quick read if you are avid reader. Almost so simple it can be boring at times, but not very much.WHO IS IT FOR? Anyone who likes "Frozen" and doesn't mind reading a book that hits all the major story beats in a different order and with a small amount of variation. Also, if you want short and quick Disney read.WHEN SHOULD YOU READ IT? Definitely read it in the winter. I think I would have enjoyed it a lot more if I were warming myself by the heater or fire with fuzzy socks and hot cocoa.DO I RECOMMEND IT? Yes, but only to fans of the movie.OVERALL: 4 out of 5 stars. Not amazing like "Reflection," but still a really fun time.SCALE: ⭐ Absolutely terrible! ⭐⭐ Readable, but not enjoyable ⭐⭐⭐ Not bad, but a bit of a let down or overhyped ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Average. Exactly what I was expecting. Will probably keep and read again sometime. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of my Absolute favorites. Excellent. Definitely reading again. And I may read it again very soon.

I honestly can’t count the number of times my sister has reread this book, taken a highlighter or underlined or marked with tabs or any other book marking activity she sees me do. When she’s got a favorite book, it doesn’t stay unmarked for long!

I love Frozen and seeing a different storyline to get to the same ending was amazing. Definitely loving the twisted series!

I downloaded this book when it was offered for free, and I've been curious about The Twisted Tale series for a long time. Conceal, Don't Feel was the first book from this series that I'd read. I'm curious if this is a good representation of the rest of the series or not.Conceal, Don't Feel gives us the twist that Elsa and Anna grew up not knowing they had a sister. Going into the book, I was interested to see how that twist was put into action. The beginning of the book was slow, but the curiosity about the twist and how it played out was enough to keep me going.Throughout the story, we're introduced to characters that we've already met in the movie, but it surprised me how much of the story felt like it was pulled from the movie, just with slight changes to the circumstances. I was expecting more of an original plot to the story with the twist, having come into this series with very little knowledge about the books.The book was an enjoyable read, but it wasn't groundbreaking for me.

I really enjoyed reading this book its absolutely amazing!!
