Welcome to Litsy!

This whole series has Disney reimaginings. This one is Tangled! There are many similarities to the movie. While some of them seem a bit out of place for this narrative. The climatic scene is a little too tidy and there‘s only a paragraph conclusion. Overall a good book. I appreciated the slow build romance, both changed, and they do get their HEA ❤️

Books 232 through 242 of the year.

Modern retelling - the movie story in a real world setting - I don't thing it translated great into a book. Anyway, there‘s nothing spectacular wrong with the story, but there‘s nothing outstanding about it as well...

Loved this fun retelling of the movie Tangled! And I realized I missed a book in this series, so off to start it now😍

I loved this #RapunzelRetelling based on Disney‘s retelling, #Tangled. Raised on an isolated, off-grid homestead, Ren at 22 convinces her parents to let her attend college if she follows their rules of no dating, makeup, internet, cell phones & comes home to do her chores every weekend. But a surprise result in a biology class sets her off on a cross country road trip with Fitz, seeing the world (& some forced proximity romantic moments). So fun!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Definitely my favorite so far in the Disney-inspired Meant To Be series! Christina Lauren do a great job putting this well-known Disney story into its own, new context.
Tangled has so much character development for the two main characters, and the authors really capture that in this story. There are lots of little nods to the original movie, but it also felt uniquely its own, which is quite a feat!

My new favorite modern day retelling (Rapunzel). Closed door romance.

Book Haul! 🤩 My husband is aware that I don‘t read everything I buy right away. This is why husbands should t come to book club. 🤣

This was the most delightful, charming fairytale retelling-maybe the best I‘ve ever read! Christina Lauren have reimagined Tangled in a modern, realistic way with complicated characters that you can‘t help but fall for. This releases June 25th and I can‘t wait until everyone reads it so we can all fan girl over it. Now I really want to watch Tangled! #BookspinBingo #netgalleygroup @TheAromaofBooks

This has started off cute, and I expect to love it, but listening to the narrators read off the email addresses over and over in the audio version is annoying.
(Book not in database so I tagged another title of theirs)
