A Thousand Cursed Nights

Tahereh Mafi‘s This Woven Kingdom meets Stephanie Garber‘s Once Upon a Broken Heart in this whimsically captivating Aladdin Retelling. A thousand nights have come to pass since Yasmine awoke in the desert with no recollection of who she was. With only a strange connection to the forbidden magic of the ancients as her guide, Yasmine places her trust in the set paths of fate. When fate leads Yasmine to a stranger who offers her a chance to access the secrets of her past, she accepts his offer. The only catch is that she must first become a princess. With the help of a magical lamp, Yasmine wishes to become a lady worthy of a prince, but there are repercussions for tampering with the forbidden magic that was purged from the land. As the secrets of her past begin to unravel, and the attention of the favoured prince clutched in her grasp, Yasmine must decide between uncovering her forgotten past or a future with the prince because the forbidden magic of the ancients offers favours to no one...not even the girl tainted by magic‘s touch.
