Description

**THE INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER**

Read Sally’s story in this young adult companion to Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas written by New York Times best-selling author Shea Ernshaw.

Jack and Sally are "truly meant to be" ... or are they?

Sally Skellington is the official, newly-minted Pumpkin Queen after a whirlwind courtship with her true love, Jack, who Sally adores with every inch of her fabric seams-- if only she could say the same for her new role as Queen of Halloween Town. Cast into the spotlight and tasked with all sorts of queenly duties, Sally can't help but wonder if all she's done is trade her captivity under Dr. Finkelstein for a different cage. But when Sally and Zero accidentally uncover a long-hidden doorway to an ancient realm called Dream Town, she'll unknowingly set into motion a chain of sinister events that put her future as Pumpkin Queen, and the future of Halloween Town itself, into jeopardy. Can Sally discover what it means to be true to herself and save the town she's learned to call home, or will her future turn into her worst... well, nightmare?

    I purchased this book and it’s not even the whole book. I would have never purchased this if I know I would only have 2 chapters of it the book it self has 20 chapters. It says it has 221 pages but it only goes up to 37 pages on mine

  • Way too fanfic like

    I’m kind of surprised by the positive reception this thing received… especially as a TNBC fan. It reads like somebody’s fanfic 90% of the time and like the author just suddenly decided to add the TNBC characters. Also tries way too hard to vilify Dr. Finkelstein and Sally’s origin twist was very reminiscent of Rapunzel. Overall just left very confused plot-wise.

  • A must read!

    I thought I was going to get fire because of this book (reading instead of doing your job is frowned upon). This story held true to the beloved original tale and only brought more loving detail. You can tell how much thought and care when into keeping the characters who they are at their core while still add development and depth. Each new chapter added to my need to know what would happen next. When I wasn’t reading it I was finding ways to talk about it with my friend, family and even customers at work.

  • So good

    This book has a really good origin story about Sally, who in the movie we don’t know much about her. I love this book. :) :)

    This is such a beautiful story, there’s so much detail and it still feels like the Nightmare before Christmas. The characters act the same as the movie and the details are impeccable! I finished this book so quickly because of how amazing it was! If your considering reading this book, please just read it, it most likely the best book I’ve ever read!

    I love it. Nice story about Sally. Not too short and not too long. Finished it in one night. I wouldn't mind seeing this as a movie.

  • Sally is as spooky as ever
