On My Bookshelf: Wildwood Dancing

I don’t know about you, but with all this working from home and social distancing going on, I’ve been making GREAT headway on my 2020 reading list!

I recently finished re-reading one of my favorite YA fantasy novels: Wildwood Dancing by Juliet Marillier.

It’s a romantic and clever retelling of The Twelve Dancing Princesses (I mean…DON’T LIE! I know that that Barbie movie is STILL one of your favorites!), and The Frog Prince.

I always love stories that center around sisterhood, and especially love the dynamics between Jena and her younger sisters as they escape to the mysterious Other Kingdom to dance the night away!

Do you have a favorite retelling or YA fantasy series? I’d love to hear your recommendations!

On a personal note, how have you been holding up with all of the changes and safety measures that have been implemented worldwide?

I hope you are finding ways to continue to grow and learn and evolve during this interesting season we all find ourselves in!

Stay healthy and safe!
