Status Updates From The Nutcracker and the Mous...

The battle with the Mouse King is about to start!

Loving it so far! 🥰

OMG who doesn't want to slap the back of Fritz's head. What a punk he is.

it always feels like reading it for the first time :)

it's that time of the year again indeed

ch 7 nice fairytale

Hoy casi no leí nada xd y ya empieza la semana...

dorośli w tej książce są okropni

The land of sweets 🍭

Was looking forward to reading Alexandre Dumas' version of the Nutcracker, but the seller on Amazon sent me this book... that I already own and read.

So now, I am re-reading this book while going through a more reputable seller to send the right book.

Is the mouse king supposed to have 7 heads? :o

Sejauh ini beda banget sama yg dulu aku tonton 😂😂

Ziemlich absurd aber sehr witzig und fanatasievoll

Busetlah, sakti benar dari ilmu astrologi, mereka bisa sampai meramu cara untuk membebaskan si putri dari kutukan bonekanya. Bahkan cara ini lebih ribet dari sekadar pangeran mencium si putri seperti di kebanyakan dongeng ala-ala snow white XD /ngeeeenggg.

.....? Lho? Bukannya tadi baru membicarakan Ayah Baptis? Dimana Ayah Baptis itu? Masih di ruang tamu atau sudah pergi sih? + A + //guslalodmendadak

Currently rereading this and even though it's weird I do like it

Wonderful! Absolutely loved it!

Me rio por cada nombre tan gracioso por cada cuento que es contado.

This is such a weird story! I don’t hate it, but I’m not excited to pick it up!

Finita la prima versione dello Schiaccianoci, una bellissima favola. Ora mi aspetta quella di Dumas ❤️

Loving this fairytale so far

Did the author just...forget that Marie was 7 years old?

I think I took on too much of of a challenge, google translate is only able to recognize about half the words I dont know, which I guess makes sense since it was written in ye olden german

It's a cute little Christmas tale so far. I love the imagery of the German Christmas and reading about Christmas traditions of the German/Prussian states. I wish to read more into the characters, but as a novella that means it is more plot driven than character driven.

I'm considering this as research for my retelling
Here I gooooo

La historia me parece muy fluida, me está encantando, aunque por supuesto, hubiese sido maravilloso leerlo en épocas navideñas, posiblemente y me lo releea en Navidad <3

Pare anche che Marie sia ancora la regina di un piccolo regno felice in cui lo sguardo può posarsi sulle cose più belle di questo e altri mondi, dai luccicanti boschi natalizi ai magnifici castelli di marzapane.
A patto, ovviamente, che si abbiano occhi capaci di vederle.

Schiaccianoci rimase muto e immobile, ma a Marie parve di udire un sospiro lieve e una vocina simile al suono di un carillon provenire dalla vetrina.
Angelo custode,
Marie, piccola mia.
Io sarò tuo
E tu sarai mia.

Avete sicuramente intuito, miei cari amici e attenti ascoltatori, come Schiaccianoci, ancor prima di prendere vita, avesse sentito nel profondo del cuore tutto l'amore e la dolcezza con cui Maria lo aveva accudito

Schiaccianoci era pallidissimo, ciò nonostante continuava a sforzarsi di sorriderle teneramente e questa cosa fece sentire a Marie una stretta al cuore
