My Name is Rapunzel
by
K.C. Hilton (Goodreads Author)
My tale has been told again and again, and I’ve heard each one. Except for my hair, I barely recognize the pitiful renditions. Muddled versions, crafted to entertain laughing children…but the children wouldn’t have laughed if they’d known the real story. It wasn't their fault. They didn't know the truth. Nobody did.

This book won me over by the title, the picture, the votes, the reviews, and the description. So it practically made me fall hard for this book, and why not? I am a sucker for fairy tales, quite normal for the females I guess. I just hope this book doesn't let me down.
Since again, I love fairy tales, and since this might be a new version of the Rapunzel fairy tale, I again, hope, it will not disappoint me.
Or I might just cry....
And it isn't a prety sight. :\
Also....it'll end badly. Since some...more

That, my friends(or not, I don't really know whoever's reading this) is the best synopsis ever.
I was just scrolling along a listopia, and I come across this book. Nice title, nice cover, then I read the synopsis:
"but the children wouldn’t have laughed if they’d known the real story. It wasn't their fault. They didn't know the truth. Nobody did."
This was so awesome.
"My name is Rapunzel and I will tell you my story. I will tell you the truth."
My brain feels like it's going to explode now.

Dear You,
I'm a complete sucker for fairytales. That short sypnosis to the book? You got me after the first sentence. After the second, I reached the point where I'd feed this book grapes (if books could eat, that is).
I WANT IT LIKE CHOCOLATE - and that, my dear friends, is a force to be reckoned with.
Well, then. Until I manage to snatch that book, I'll be waiting. Lurking in the shadows.
Goodbye - for now.
*add eerie wolf howling here*
PS: Isn't that cover beautiful?

I love everything involving Rapunzel. However, the intro does give me some doubts about its content. It seems that it will not be an "innocent" little retelling as I hope it to be. After reviews start coming in, we shall see. ;)
I'm a sucker for fairy tale re-tellings, especially those ones where everything isn't all true love and fairy dust. Put together the cover and the itsy's bitsy blurb, I think I might like this....
I just read a Rapunzel retelling in Cameron Dokey's Once and I loved it. So I can't wait to see what Hilton does with the story.

Interesting. Thanks for the vague synopsis. I've never heard of a Rapunzel retelling. To-read for sure!

Sounds good! SO I am keeping my hopes up that it is not completely dull. With such a lovely cover page and an interesting one sentence summary.
so we have a name, a title and a beautiful cover and still no release date.... PLEASE PUT US OUT OF OUR MISERY
Ooooh I'm excited for this one!

Born and raised in Aurora, Illinois I spent my childhood playing street games with the neighborhood kids. When I wasn't outside, I spent much of my time reading and getting lost in adventurous worlds and whirlwind courtships. At the age of seventeen, I moved to Kentucky and eventually began to raise a family of my own.
