For August, I‘ve selected this collection of dark, twisted, angry fairy tale retelling short stories.
Wonderfully creepy and full of rage, these were everything I wanted out of them.

pickYou think the Grimm fairy tales are dark and twisted. Just wait until the women of the story decide that they‘ve had enough.
13 beautiful, lyrical, and dark retellings of 13 different fairy tales. I desperately need to listen to these on audio during a dark autumn evening. All about the patriarchy‘s control of our bodies and voices, and the feminine rage unleashed to control our stories. 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗
The next book to read picked out the book jar. Just finished Gilded by Marissa Meyer and loved it! Bummed I have to wait till November for the sequel. But will be worth the wait. Happy reading and weekend everyone. What's everyone got planned to read???
Charity shop buys of today. Monster Mission on the left. Think did quite well will post the kids haul next. I'm most excited about the tangleweed and Brine collection #charityshop #bookhaul #booksbooksbooks #YA #classics #fairytale #fantasy
These twisted fairy tales are awesome! And a little bit mad. Would recommend to anyone looking for something a bit different.
This are fairytale retellings with a very dark touch - it was the first book I thought of for todays #deadroses #heartsandhardcovers @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
just started reading this collection of fairytale retellings. The first one was beautifully written, the illustrations are marvellous and I really like the dark, twisted touch that was used to alter the stories! The original fairytale is still recongnizeably, yet, the outcome is totally different! Hopefully the book will continue to be this enjoyable!
Hello #bookmail ? finally this beauty arrived ? can't wait to read the "feminist fairytale retellings with a dark twist" ?
