A retelling of The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Cade‘s a priest who comes to Festivalé for cleansing. There he meets Amaya, whose dancer name is Esmeralda. Cade feels he has a monster within him that he feels Amaya brings out of him. When trouble finds Amaya, will Cade save her or kill her too?

I didn‘t like this one. It was too weird & awkward for me. I didn‘t like either of the characters & they didn‘t have any character arcs.

It's almost spring. At least it warms up so much during the day. The rose in the garden likes it. 🌹🌹

Thornhedge | T. Kingfisher

4.5 ⭐ You know that feeling when you have waited too long to read a really good book. I‘m living that now. I‘ve had Thornhedge since it came out and I already know I love T. Kingfisher. But no, I waited on this. The story that this woman can put in 111 pages. It‘s sweet, it‘s uplifting, it‘s happy, it‘s fascinating. Let the adjectives continue. This is a sleeping beauty retelling that imagines a different villain and a different reason

LibrarianRyan for beauty to sleep. It dares to say that beauty can be ugly, and commonness can be beautiful. It weaves a story we know into a culture we don‘t to produce a story that will want to be read repeatedly. 3w
TracyReadsBooks Loved this book! So good!!! 3w
LibrarianRyan @TracyReadsBooks she has a new one coming out soon. And I still have a backlog. 3w

A retelling of Aladdin. Yasmine‘s forced to marry before her father dies. She already loves a servant, but her father‘s assistant wants to keep the power he has, so he‘ll have to marry the girl he detests. What happens when their hate turns into something else?

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This one was a good retelling. I‘m not an Aladdin fan, but I liked the enemies to lovers aspect. I just got annoyed by the FMC & I wanted a tiny more spice.
