This was a fun read. It was an interesting take on what happened after happily ever after. Overall I enjoyed reading about Sleeping Beauty. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fair Rosaline | Natasha Solomons

I really enjoyed this R&J retelling, which centers Rosaline's POV. Sure, it takes a bunch of liberties and they may not be everyone's cup of tea, but it was a great new viewpoint to read Romeo as a Very Bad Man. I didn't love Tybalt's characterization but seeing the Friar in a new light was fascinating and chilling. Now I need to go search for every Rosaline-centric work out there! #BooksAndBlooms

Andrea313 @mcipher When I bought the book, I thought, "Huh, looks like my vase." Then I found roses at a discount?! Had to complete the look. ? 11h

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Pleasant enough retelling of Pride and Prejudice, set in modern day East Hampton. It was fine, although Elizabeth was more neurotic and Darcy less charming than the original. On its own this is pretty forgettable but I do love P&P, and so probably liked this more than I would have otherwise. Soft pick.

Emma of 83rd Street | Audrey Bellezza, Emily Harding

Mehso-so

⭐️⭐️💫 I found this audiobook kind of annoying. I don‘t remember Emma very well, so I don‘t know if the back and forth of two people liking each other but not having a grown up conversation and instead assuming they know what the other is thinking, causing grief is from the original or the adaptation. Both narrators had annoying voices for the women in particular. The sex scenes were overdone and I sort of wished they‘d hurry up. Meh. 🤷‍♀️

Just another great and funny Shakespeare story turned into a choose your own adventures. Illustrations were cool as well.

Odyssey | Stephen Fry

Oh Boy! Oh Boy! Oh Boy! I did not know that Stephen Fry had a 4th book in the Greek Mythology series. I need to finish my current audiobook so I can get to this. I know it's going to be another winner. #SeriesLove2025
