Welcome to the May I Suggest Giveaway Blog Hop hosted and organized by Val of Stuck in Books!
This blog hop is all about us giving a book that we'd consider amazing or incredible, so it was quite an easy choice for me! One of the first books that came to mind was Solving for Ex by LeighAnn Kopans, a contemporary retelling of Mansfield Park, and my favourite contemporary of the year to this date!

Wicked by Gregory Maguire
ReplyDeleteI agree! "Wicked" by Gregory Maguire is my favorite interpretation of the original story of "The Wizard Of Oz." And I love the Broadway play it was adapted into as well!!!
DeleteI haven't read any re-tellings but I really enjoyed the movie Ever After and the re-telling of Cinderella depicted in a Grimm episode.
ReplyDeleteThanks :)
I really love 1932 by Karen M. Cox! It's a retelling of Pride and Prejudice :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!

My favorite retelling was the adaptation of the Cinderella story into the movie "Ever After." Anjelica Houston and Drew Barrymore are absolutely perfect sparring partners and leading ladies!
