I got a lot of recommendations for Beauty and the Beast retellings during the #TRW2017 challenge so I figured I'd give one of them a shot...

#nowreading #fairytales #YA #blameitonlitsy @MarriedtoMrT

MarriedtoMrT Hope you like it! 6y
EchoLogical @MarriedtoMrT So far so good! My only complaint is the numerous times the author uses the phrase "hair raising." It's like enough already, use something else! ? 6y

LibrarianRyan I gave my. Book 1 to a friends kid. So I only have book 2. She'll probably get that as well. 6y
EchoLogical Hey Margie, did you happen to get another package? 6y
Bookzombie @EchoLogical I checked my PO Box yesterday and it was empty. I can check again tomorrow. 6y
EchoLogical @Bookzombie Okie dokie. You should have another one waiting for you. 6y
EchoLogical @Bookzombie Yep ☺️ 6y
Bookzombie @EchoLogical You are spoiling me! Thank you! 6y

Sorry guys, a few minutes behind schedule. My little Vanna got tied up with a previous engagement so we just concluded the drawing for #TRW2017.
Congrats, @Bookzombie! Shoot me an email at shoppersec518@gmail.com with your choice of YA book and address. Thanks to everyone who participated in my first (and probably last) photo challenge! I've discovered so many good books thru your posts and my TBR stack thanks you all!

Riveted_Reader_Melissa Great job little Vanna! 6y
EchoLogical @Riveted_Reader_Melissa Thanks! She's such a ham. 😌 6y
Bookzombie OMG! How exciting! I was scrolling through and was like 'hey, that's my name?' before I read your caption. 😁 Thank you so much!!! And thank you to Vanna! Sending you an e-mail shortly. 6y

MicheleinPhilly She's so adorable. 🤗 6y
EchoLogical @Bookzombie I got your email. I'll have your book on it's way by the end of the week. 😉 And thank you both for the love you've shown my little lady. I think she's pretty cute but I might be a tad bit biased. Lol 6y
EchoLogical @MicheleinPhilly I meant to tag you in my previous comment. 😅 6y

#trw2017 #superherosaturday I read this book so long ago that I don't remember the details. I gave it four stars though.

EchoLogical I can't tell you how many times I've read a book only to completely forget everything about it. 😂 6y
Bookzombie @EchoLogical Same here! 😂 6y

So I thought that I was over the whole superhero trend but then @penguinrandomhouse decided that they were gonna do this. Am I gonna read all four books? Yes. Am I happy about it? No. Will I be happy after I read all four? Yes, most likely. 😂

P.S. Last prompt for my Teen Read Week challenge but I'm drawing the winner of the book tomorrow at 7 CST so feel free to enter up until then if you haven't yet

Yeah_I_Read The Cat woman one is by Sarah J Maas and I can‘t friggin wait 🤗🤗🤗 6y
EchoLogical @Yeah_I_Read I saw! I'm ashamed to say that I haven't read any of her work yet. 😌 6y
Yeah_I_Read I‘m definitely on her bandwagon lol. I would buy anything she writes sight-unseen. Throne of Glass is my guilty pleasure series 6y

My #SuperHeroSaturday pick goes to the new America comic series by Gabby Rivera.

She's so bad ass. I love her. I love Gabby Rivera. Look at that artwork!!!

WhatDeeReads @EchoLogical Yeah, it's good. 6y
EchoLogical @WhatDeeReads I'm so out of the loop. I've never even heard of this one. I'm more of DC girl but still, I'm slacking. 😥 6y
WhatDeeReads @EchoLogical I knew because I'm a huge fan of Gabby Rivera. 6y

#trw2017 #fairytalefriday I haven't read this one yet, but it's a Beauty and the Beast retelling that's been on my TBR for a while.

EchoLogical This sounds like a good one! #stacked 6y
MarriedtoMrT It was really good...but then kind of forgettable (for me, at least). 6y
Bookzombie @MarriedtoMrT I read another one by her called Crimson Bound and didn't love it but can't remember why. 6y
MarriedtoMrT @Bookzombie I gave that one three stars on GR but just had to look it up to remember that I read it. I guess for whatever reason her stuff really just doesn‘t stick with me. I think she had another one after this but I decided to even try it. 6y

I read this many months ago and LOVED it but never felt like I could really explain my feelings about it or why so I never reviewed it. I‘m finally doing it for #FairytaleFriday

The author‘s dedication and end note (partially quoted above) embody some of my feelings. I love Yeva‘s self-searching and dedication to finding herself. I love her strength and self-purpose. This book just worked for me. ❤️

#TRW2017

mariaku21 I loved that dedication! Ugh I still can't sum up the feels and I just finished reading this late last night/ early morning 6y
EchoLogical This is the second Beauty and the Beast retelling that I've #stacked this morning because this dedication is everything! 6y
mariaku21 @EchoLogical so far this is my fave BatB retelling. 6y

For #FairytaleFriday, I had to share this old post from @EpicReads featuring lots of YA fairytale retellings. The tagged book is definitely one of my favorites... A cool spin on the story of Rapunzel.
Here's the link:

#TRW2017 #UnleashYourStory

tea.n.books @beccaeve Have you seen this chart?? I know you're always on the lookout for retellings 6y
Bookzombie This chart is cool. I'm going to have to pull it up on my computer. 🔍 6y
EchoLogical @Bookzombie Yeah, there are a few more infographics in the blog post, centered around mythology. 6y

#trw2017 #therapeuticthursday (late) This is not a teen series but I started listening to these books in middle school, I think. Returning to series like this is therapeutic to me. It's like catching up with an old friend. I'm currently listening to the new one, but it still gives me that same comforting feeling.

EchoLogical I keep seeing these, thinking I should check them out but I'm not ready for that level of commitment. 😂😂😂 6y
CAnne I love reading books I've read before. It's like watching an old movie. 6y
Bookzombie @EchoLogical I understand! There are series I haven't started because there are so many books in them. 😁 6y
Bookzombie @CAnne I agree! I also think it's the narrator on these since I have always listened to them. 6y
