I loved this book! It's such a poignant retelling of "Wild Swans" by Hans Christian Andersen. I highly recommend!

It is basically a retelling of Aladdin in the modern day (and another culture).

It is enjoyable but nothing spectacular.

Sadly the well-known names in this production can't save this rather pointless modernised retelling of a popular classic.

If I could reread the labryinth this would be it. A retelling that isn't a retelling. The characters are all hinting at a connection but still strong on their own. The fight for her sister while fighting both herself and the goblin king draw you in. A tragic love story you just can't put down.

I love retellings, and I love the Arabian Nights, and this is a really good Arabin Nights retelling with a smart and strong heroine.
  
Beautiful illustrations by Chris Riddell.
That didn't go where I thought it would. An interesting take/retelling of sleeping beauty and snow white tales.
