PERFECT book. A world I never want to leave! Mr. Whiskers laughs at Jane for not actually hating herself and he’s right; she never hated herself, she hated the way people made her feel and internalized what they said, but it’s very clear she never really believed it even before her act 3 revelation. Jane is my favorite Disney princess! Loved the guy from Spongebob cameo.
