I've not read the goldfinch before, must give it a look! :) xAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03501670636125502050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8892846840984709159.post-10709612205453692722014-09-14T20:51:55.448+01:002014-09-14T20:51:55.448+01:00It's the new "thing", isn't it? ...It's the new "thing", isn't it? Re-writing classics. Especially with a Dystopian twist. Marissa Meyers take on it is pretty good - Cinder, Scarlett and Cress are pretty okay. I read one called Anastasia from Netgalley the other week - it was essentially Cinderella with lesbians. It was alright, but a bit muddled! Tried to read a modern-day Oliver Twist and got to 15%, couldn't do it. I have a Pinnochio one on my Kindle at the minute - called Puppet, I think it's a girl version. I'm reading The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt at the minute - I've been racing through books lately and I wanted to sit down and read something a bit longer. I'm only 1/5 of the way through but I like it so far!Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08809692683188179587noreply@blogger.com
