Cassandra’s Reviews > Relit: 16 Latinx Remixes of Classic Stories > Status Update

End of story 16 (finally!) remix of the old man and the sea

Another interesting take on the source, another post apocalyptic world but this time where sand reigns in Las Vegas — I’d love to spend more time in this world! 4.5 stars ✨

End of story 15 (remix of Frankenstein)

This was beautiful, and such a unique take on Frankenstein! Love the post-apocalyptic undersea world, and I think it’s cool that a lot of these stories took place in NYC

5 stars! ✨ one more to go 🤙🏼

End of story 14 (remix of twenty thousand leagues under the sea)

Loved this one! So good, way better than that full novel retelling I read last year lmao. This was realistic and something that might just happen to us soon 🤦🏽‍♀️

5 stars ✨

End of story 13 (remix of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight)

I don’t understand this story??? 😭😭 I feel like I could read this one again and again and still not understand the deeper meaning it was trying to say. That being said, this was BEAUTIFULLY written, and maybe I’ll look up the original source and try to figure out what the story was talking about at the end 😅 4.5 Stars ✨

Lmao not them finally giving us a little description halfway into the story

Can the author at least describe what Gal looks like?? I can’t picture them at all. What color is their hair? How tall are they? Eye color? Skin? Face shape?? Nothing???

I’ve been burned before. I’m so uneasy about everything in this one, trying to figure if the plot twist is that one of these people is dead 😭

End of story 12 (remix of the little mermaid)

Really unique take on the story! Loved the magic and vibes, and they managed to make you care for the sisters more than most adaptations lmao

5 Stars ✨

Thank god this next story is the little mermaid remix, I’ve been waiting, and after that last one I need something good 😭
