Welcome to Litsy!

This Cinderella retelling is so subtle, sweet & true to its characters. It's not the kind of story in which you have a clear victim & bully. Throughout the book, we see how families can come from wildly different perspectives but still be on the same side. And yes, of course it's nice to see Tatum escape her house & find romance, but even nicer to see how June has packed so much sweetness & self-reflection into such a cute & quick-paced read.

Cute but simple.

Recommend for those who like contemporary fairy tale retelling, enjoy the arts, and identify with making mistakes to find yourself.

I love Cinderella retellings. This book was an enjoyable quick read. I loved that the book didn't just focus on the romance (in fact I would look at that as a side story), but also the family relationships and friendships.

My slightly ambitious TBR for the day, but I just have 5 chapters of The Darkest Part of the Forest and I'm halfway done with It Started With Goodbye, so I hope to start Gentleman's Guide after that!!

Very cute! A quick read and very enjoyable! Perfect little summertime YA book. I look forward to reading other books bye Christina June.

Contemporary Cinderella story done well

I'm still a small vessel being tossed along the turbulent seas of reading whims. 🌊🛶🌊

In other words, I've started but not finished all of these. Blerg.

Afternoon reading

This was a very readable book, and I think this would be a perfect read for a 15/16 year old. I was just not loving the book. #netgalley #arc

Totally recommending this YA contemporary romance! It was sweet and fun and made me smile. #mayrelease #arc

Brought the Hubs to The Answer Brewery for some post-birthday celebration!

#CurrentlyReading this, and I'm so excited and thrilled because Christina is a friend, and because I had to work overnight last night which means I'm off today!

This was modern day retelling of the Cinderella story told from 16 year old Tatum's perspective.

This definitely is a YA book I would recommend to my daughters as the story was well told and they would be able to relate it much more than I did. With that said, I will admit I enjoy this quick read.

#thanks #netgalley

An appropriately titled book for some early-morning, post-holidays airport reading. #boutofbooks

I've already read Caraval, but it still needs to be on my list. Most excited for It Started With Goodbye!
