![]() Other than the American Girl books, it was the favorite book of my childhood. I'm always a slut for fairy tale retellings. ![]() ![]() "Six months passed and they sucked" is hard to sort of take in.īut it was cute. Most of the plot takes place during well over a year, but I doesn't feel like it, it feels like maybe a few weeks. Certain passages are just letters between the characters, time passes in a way that I had trouble accepting. As always, the book is better, but I do feel like giving the movie a new chance after reading this. I don't remember that much from it, but the book does differ quite a lot from the movie, from what I remember. I saw this movie a few years back, after hearing way too many good things about it which obviously disappointed me. Yaay! It's a bit sad that I have to feel that way, but let's not dwell on that. ![]() All the magic books and nice giants and well-meaning fairies and no rape. No, for real, I'm sticking to an earlier statement: children's fantasy is so much better than adult fantasy. I think I need a "needs more lesbians" shelf, but if I added that I'd have to go back and retag like 98% of the books I've reviewed, so that seems like more trouble than it's worth. ![]()
