Absolutely not what I expected. But it's Rapunzel Tangled. of course I was gonna love every minute. Also the book accidentally became a metaphor for moon cycles aka your period and I LOVE that.
Now did they come up with the idea for this book before or after the tv show? Because if it was after I would've liked if Cass was in this. Cass / Gina should've been her girlfriend. They keep introducing potential love interests as somebody’s sister because they know the reality is Rapunzel is bisexual and immediately falls in love with the first lesbian she sees (Eugene, Cass in the show, and Gina in this book). Disney you're all cowards for not giving the people what they want but showing us it could be possible.
