Now I understand fans of OUAT who say they don't like where the show storyline is going and they decide not to watch anymore. XD I won't say who are the two characters that depart from the main cast (I won't name them because SPOILERS!), but that's the reason I stopped watching.

As to series, I began seeing D.A. not long ago and I'm watching season four. It is very nice!

Lol! While I like the addition of a mini-OUAT novel, most of what is written in it is basically revisiting some of the things we already watched in the season one episodes, except the novel is told from mostly Emma and MM/Snow White's point of views. Before I bought the book, I had already read online reviewers giving two star reviews, but yet I bought it anyway because it's OUAT related. XD What I did like about the book is all the character references, and name differences in things that were never fully established on the show. Like, how Snow White & Prince Charming's (eventual) castle is called the "Royal Castle", or that reference about how the road Prince Charming and Princess Abigail travel past is near to King Midas' castle. I am currently watching Downton Abbey Season 4 and because of the reasons Apple named, I don't think it is that good anymore... but I'm gonna see how s4 ends and then decide if i'll go on or not (as soon as s5 comes out)! Lesley Nicol is really great and I think it would be pretty cool to have her back in flashbacks :)

I felt like the OUAT book was mostly the dialogues we already knew from the episodes and well... I hope that if they decide to bring out a book of the other seasons it's written by a different author!

Yeah if Elsa is indeed the cause of the harshest winter that coincided with Snow's birth. Johanna should definitely be appearing because I'm sure she would be there alongside Queen Eva, making her feel calm under the cold cirumstances.
