Love how you divided up the video by individual fairytales. This video made me realize I’ve been reading more mythology retellings than fairytale retellings, which is weird since I love fairytales so much. I’d recommend Six Crimson Cranes which is a retelling of The Wild Swans. Lim’s other book Spin the Dawn alludes to other fairytales even though it isn’t a direct fairytale retelling and is so good!
Yes!! There are so many different fairytale retellings out there it's crazy! So glad you enjoyed the video. I hear spin the dawn was a loose Mulan retelling 😍. I've heard amazing things about six crimson cranes!
I didn't love Spinning Silver unfortunately I found it more confusing and just didn't connect with it as much. But her writing is always beautiful and Uprooted is such a special book! I hope you love it!
Right??! I'll warn you in this snow white he had a scene describing blood flowing down the room and I was like what happened?! But she got her period 🤣. I was like whyyyyy. I did still enjoy this one though!
Uprooted is one of my favorites too! I hope NN writes more fairytales!

I’ll be reading Uprooted for retoldathon. Loved Spinning Silver. Can’t wait to see how Uprooted goes.

OMG I completely agree with your Gregory Maguire opinions!! I’ve read 2 of his books and I just thought the way he writes women is soo weird 🥴🥴
