June: Retellings

[Kayla Rayne]

In June we are focusing on Retellings. You could also go with re-imaginings, as this topic is not exclusive to books that are a direct remake of the original. Feel free to throw in any book that follows along to a classic story, fairy tale or mythology that you love.

As always, we look forward to seeing your posts and videos. Happy reading!

The Star-Touched Queen
The Wrath & the Dawn
Dorothy Must Die
Avalon High

I'm so excited for this one. My friends have been telling me I need to read Cinder for awhile now. This is the perfect motivator for that.

[J.S.]

Didn't have many retellings so I thought I'd include some retellings I need to read very soon!

Quite a few retellings here. I've also included those I've not been the greatest fan of (you never know if you'll actually come to like them), and those I haven't yet read. https://adreamerslibrary.wordpress.co...

I posted mine today! I liked how some of you posted about including books you have on your TBRs, so I did the same! I'm excited to see everyone's responses! https://youtu.be/hnIc_p9HiQM

Haven't read many retellings but the ones I have are some of my favorite books of all time

I'm finally posting my Retellings recs!

It says so in the description too, but I obviously meant Ireland when I said Scotland, Marissa when I said Stephenie, and the early 1900s when I said the Victorian era (at least that's close, but no).

Hey guys! I haven't been able to film as much recently (explained in one of my latest videos) so I won't have this topic up in June. But I did an underrated retelling recommendations on my channel before and thought I would link it here because I still really want people to know about these books!
