Oh Rachel you have totally been enlisted into our book raving madness :) yay!
Has anyone read

except me. Its probably a safe bet that you would love it too. I found it bland and confusing.
Mod
or the first one? I just wondered if they are any good."I read the first one. I rather enjoyed it, though it was a bit odd. I have this one but haven't read it yet.

Oh Rac..."
Yes! You devilish ladies and your amaze-ballz taste in books! I'll blame you when my husband looks at the checking account! LOL ;)
I'll just say, "But it's on the kindle, shnookums sweetie honey pie." Blink, blink ;)
Mod
I think."All you gals chatting about this one is making me wanna read it! I just bought my copy :)"
Yeah Rachel, they will do that to you.
Mod
or the first one? I just wondered if they are any good."I haven't read this one Melissa but I did read
and it was OK if you like fairytale retellings.

Mod
Let us know how that works out for you Rachel.

Well I will put them on my wish list and look for them to go down in price. I hate not knowing.

I see now that everyone who responded to Melissa was a bit iffy about it. This is the first time I saw anything beyond stellar reviews for it. Glad I'm not the only one.

I like them if they are told good. I'm conflicted with them

I haven't really found a retelling that I actually loved. They just don't do much for me.
Mod

They are different and I feel like you either like them or you don't.
Melissa wrote: "Tracy wrote: "Melissa wrote: "Has anyone read or the first one? I just wondered if they are any good."I haven't read this one Melissa but I did read bookcover..."
Have you read
or
? They are both much better Beauty and the Beast retellings IMO. Of Beast and Beauty is a YA futuristic retelling. And Entreat Me is a more typical fantasy retelling, which is adult and a bit dark.

I haven't Rebecca. Beauty and the Beast is my favorite fairytale so I haven't read many retellings. I may check them out.
Tracy wrote: "Rebecca ♥ Matrim, Kishan, Magnus ♥ wrote: "Melissa wrote: "Tracy wrote: "Melissa wrote: "Has anyone read or the first one? I just wondered if they are any good."..."Understandable if you want to avoid reading a book that ruins a fave story.
Tracy wrote: "Rebecca ♥ Matrim, Kishan, Magnus ♥ wrote: "Melissa wrote: "Tracy wrote: "Melissa wrote: "Has anyone read or the first one?

Melissa wrote: "Tracy wrote: "Rebecca ♥ Matrim, Kishan, Magnus ♥ wrote: "Melissa wrote: "Tracy wrote: "Melissa wrote: "Has anyone read or the first one? I just wondered if they ..."Judging by the title and cover I would guess that is right. But book one was a Beauty and the Beast retelling.
Melissa wrote: "Has anyone read or the first one? I just wondered if they are any good."Loved the first one Melissa. I haven't had a chance to read this one yet.
Rachel wrote: "I'll just say, "But it's on the kindle, shnookums sweetie honey pie." Blink, blink ;)"Haha. Yeah.... I don't even tell my hubby about all the books I buy. We have a don't ask/ dont tell policy about my amazon account! Haha
Melissa wrote: "Has anyone read or the first one? I just wondered if they are any good."I read and loved her first book Melissa. And I have Crimson Bound waiting in my kindle to read soon. I'm hoping it's another good one.
Rachel wrote: "I'll just say, "But it's on the kindle, shnookums sweetie honey pie." Blink, blink ;)"Yup that'll work on him for sure Rachel :)
Rebecca ♥ Matrim, Kishan, Magnus ♥ wrote: "Melissa wrote: "Tracy wrote: "Melissa wrote: "Has anyone read or the first one? I just wondered if they are any good."I haven't read this one Melissa but I did..."
Oh yes I loved Of Beauty and Beast a lot too Rebecca. And oh I need to go and check out the second one which I have not read *gasp* yes, I need to run over to Amazon and rectify this situation immediately LOL! I have an obsession for Beauty and the Beast anything :P
Belkis wrote: "Rebecca ♥ Matrim, Kishan, Magnus ♥ wrote: "Melissa wrote: "Tracy wrote: "Melissa wrote: "Has anyone read or the first one? I just wondered if they are any good."..."Haha, well I hope you enjoy it Belkis. :P
Melissa wrote: "Tracy wrote: "Rebecca ♥ Matrim, Kishan, Magnus ♥ wrote: "Melissa wrote: "Tracy wrote: "Melissa wrote: "Has anyone read or the first one? I just wondered if they ..."Yes Melissa Crimson Bound looks seems to be a Red Riding Hood retelling from the book synopsis.
