Cinders

I don’t often read fairytale remakes. In fact, I put off this book for a long time because when it came out I was 1. Avoiding anything fairytale/princess related, 2. Irrationally jealous of the author (who I know peripherally and should get to know better). Time went on, and I grew up emotionally, and then my to-be-read pile grew by a few hundred books. Well, I was planning to go on a short plane trip to a wedding two states over and was wondering what to read. I pulled up my Kindle app and thought, “Hmm…Cinders is a novella, isn’t it? I should be able to finish it on the plane trip.”

Bearskin

Bearskin, by Jamie Robyn Wood, is a book I almost put down. Now, that may sound like a bad start to a review, but hear me out.

It is a book I almost put down, but I’m glad I didn’t.
