Also, I listened to Strands of Bronze and Gold by Jane Nickerson and decided I had to find the original disturbing tale, Bluebeard, as I've never read it before. As I said, some slight progress.

How about you? Anybody read any fabulous retellings? Any new or forthcoming retellings you are wanting to read? I'm still working on my retelling news post (oh, how long will it remain in the works), so keep an eye out for that THIS MONTH. Promise.
If you buy through my Amazon linkage, I will get a very small percentage

I finished my first two books of the year! I didn't love Tiger Lily but Peter Pan was amazing. I want to read Across the Star Swept Sea by Diana Peterfreund next, but it doesn't come out until October :(. Maybe I'll read the Scarlet Pimpernel and Life After Theft instead. I love this challenge!!
ReplyDeleteYeah! I loved your review comparison. I'm eager to get to Across a Star-swept Sea too, but darn it October is so far away!
DeleteGrrr. It's already May and I still haven't started!!! I need to get to this, lol.
ReplyDeleteYou've got plenty of time - and don't feel any pressure :)
DeleteI have all sorts of plans!
ReplyDeleteYeah! I love it when you have plans :)
