Top Ten Tuesday: Ten Fairytale Retellings I've Read
I absolutely love fairtale retellings and fractured fairytales. They’re some of my favorite stories. Below is a list of books I’ve read and there’s a bunch more on my TBR pile. I’m going to try and write up 140-character or less (a la Twitter) descriptions of each book. Find something…
