Reviews
**A Goodreads Best Book of February** "An exciting tale of deception, forbidden love, and dangerous magic, starring a cheeky thief and powerful but vulnerable jinni. Fans of fairytale retellings set in faraway lands full of romance, daring-do and pulse-pounding action will fall for this swoon-worthy tale." -- Booklist , STARRED REVIEW "Lush and magical . . . anyone who ever loved Aladdin or One Thousand and One Nights is going to be hooked." -- Bustle "Gorgeous and complex, this is a wish granted to fans of fantasy, romance, or just good storytelling." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "Lyrically written." -- School Library Journal "Playful chemistry and Khoury's assured storytelling should make it easy for readers to lose themselves in this rich and complex story of allegiances and betrayal." -- Publishers Weekly "Though the dynamic ending fully concludes their story, readers will likely long for more stories--say, 1,000 of them. Dripping in magic, strong women, and forbidden love." -- Kirkus Reviews "Deliciously sensual yet understated . . . rich and compelling. The competing allegiances and ambivalent outcomes test Zahra's long-held assumptions about self and other, her beliefs about love and freedom. Teens will appreciate Zahra's tough choices as ones they face for themselves." -- Voice of Youth Advocates "Lush, romantic, and exquisitely written-- The Forbidden Wish is a rare, glittering jewel of a novel. I was captivated from the very first sentence and never wanted it to end! Absolutely stellar--and utterly unforgettable." --Sarah J. Maas , author of the New York Times bestselling Throne of Glass series " The Forbidden Wish reminded me of all that I love about the story of Aladdin, now told through the eyes of a narrator who is as human and flawed as she is powerful and cunning. Add to that a compelling new romance and I found myself adoring this tale immensely, from beginning to end." -- Marissa Meyer , New York Times bestselling author of Cinder and The Lunar Chronicles " The Forbidden Wish has everything you'd hope for in a retelling of the Aladdin story--hanging-by-your-fingertips danger, palace intrigue, a dark villain, forbidden love, a swashbuckling hero, and a feisty, dagger-eyed princess, and yet each richly written chapter in this thrilling adventure story is full of unexpected surprises. I was utterly absorbed from the first page!" --Colleen Houck , author of the New York Times bestselling Tiger's Curse series "This is Aladdin like you've never imagined. Filled with unexpected twists and turns reminiscent of a magic carpet ride, Jessica Khoury's The Forbidden Wish is a must-read for anyone who loves a fantastic story." --Rene Ahdieh , author of The Wrath and the Dawn , "Lush, romantic, and exquisitely written-- The Forbidden Wish is a rare, glittering jewel of a novel.
