I'm not as familiar with the original tale - I think I read way back in the day when I was a kid but forgot a lot about it - so it was fun to read it as a retelling that still felt very close to the original tale. Sometimes I just got lost in the story and the language wasn't as apparent BUT definitely something for new readers to be aware of!Ī fun retelling too. Like, if I wasn't reading this with Alyssa & Amy, I probably would have easily been scared away by the language alone (thee! thou! eek!) but I started to get the hang of it. Well, this also takes place in an Elizabethan sort of setting and the language matches soooo. I LOVED every single character and the ending was just perfect. I loved the characters and thinking back on it (well, after having just finished), they're what really stand out for me. The best thing about this for me was the personalities. This was such a fun read and surprisingly quick! Thanks to Alyssa for suggesting this one for an OtSP read! :)
