I finished this hours ago and couldn’t decide what I wanted to rate it. Let alone how I feel about it. I enjoyed this one about as much as I expected to. I have loved everything this author has written. If you are someone that struggles with the PTSD trigger, tread lightly. I had to pause for a day while I processed that was going to be apart of this one. But it felt right for this story, so I warn those who can’t get past that trigger. This twisted retelling has me wanting more from these characters. My favorite in this series so far.

I never in my wildest imagination could have pictured Aladdin in quite this way. I don’t know quite what to say here that won’t spoil it, but rest assured, this is not the tale you are familiar with.

This is a different spin on the Aladdin story. I enjoyed it. The story flowed nicely and it had a great ending.

An Interesting twist on the old classic, Aladdin.
Well written and the storyline flowed well. I just ‘Wish’ that we could have found out exactly what happened to Alan and Addie after the final sequence.
Loving the Twisted Tales series thus far.

Wow, this was a differvent telling of the Aladdin tale for sure. I didn’t kknow what to make o it a first but it sorta made sense after a while. I have to say I liked it. Especially the twist at the end. Recommended read.

This twisted bloody version of Aladdin could easily be turned into a full book instead of a short story.
When Al has a Djinn enter his life as a homeless vet with ptsd, things change drastically. Some for the better, some for the worse.
This was not the most vicious of the series so far, but it definitely had some gore and potential triggers. The ending was quick and had a twist, but I wish that there was more! The end was sudden and felt like it could have had several more chapters. I liked the main characters chemistry would love an extended version if it ever came out.

Alan is living in the street and picks up a black bottle. When he opens the bottle, a djinn comes out and into his body. The djinn can control what Alan does. He makes Alan do things he would not normally do. Alan tries to find a way to rid himself of the evil djinn. An evil version of Aladdin.

I loved every minute that I spent reading this masterful horror retelling of Aladdin! I found the characters sympathetic and I really enjoyed the modern setting. The evil and manipulative Djinn proved to be a powerful foe. This is one read that can’t be missed!

Another great story in the Twisted Tales series. I really enjoyed this story immensely, as it is one of the best in the series. Well worth a read. Highly recommended

This book was a fast read for me due to its short length. It is an horror retelling of Aladdin, but with a dark and scary twist. Alan is living in a tent on the streets when he picks up a black bottle. Inside the bottle is a djinn and it takes over Alan‘s body and mind. The djinn makes Alan do things like do away with people. I definitely was not expecting the twist at the end of the story but it left me wanting more.

This is not the first book I’ve read by Courtney Konstantin and it sure will not be my last. I absolutely adore her works and the love she puts into every single one of her books
Wish is a fantastic scary retelling in modern times of Aladdin. The only thing I would love is for it to be a full novel and not a novella. I would love more of this story and characters.

What an amazing retelling of Aladdin. This retellings series is such a great idea and so well done! Each book is really a great read! All the characters are familiar yet different at the same time. Highly recommended!

This was an interesting spin on the Aladin story. An evil genie that can take you over, a vet with PTSD, add in a gangster, and his beautiful daughter, what could possibly go wrong! Great read, I recommend.
