One genre that I enjoy reading, and I don’t get to read enough, is retellings of fairy tales. So, for this challenge, it is all about that. Any retelling will work, but I am going to be looking for the fairy tales first. The challenge creator has this set up as a bingo, which is a first for me, so we will see just how well I do.
January 1, 2021: 2020 sucked, and I didn’t read hardly anything. The creator of this challenge is not continuing it for 2021, so I am going to continue with the 2020 version and see how long it takes for me to read these twenty-five books. Maybe I will actually get something read this year.
