Wishlist Wednesday (4) Waiting on Wednesday (4) Weigh in Wednesday (6)

Still on vacation until Friday so I probably won't be putting up any reviews this week (for some reason it's been freaking impossible to find a quiet place to read around here.  I almost strangled my brother on the car ride up.  But that's beside the point.  He's fine.  I promise.  For now.)  Anyway I still wanted to put up my Wednesday memes so you all knew i wasn't dead.  I'll be back on Friday and hopefully will have a review then and a book haul next weekend!


  

Wishlist Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Pen to Paper that lets bloggers gush about books that have been sitting on their WLs for awhile.

My pick this week is:
As You WishSisters Red (Fairytale Retellings, #1)Sweetly (Fairytale Retellings, #2)Purity

Basically anything by Jackson Pearce.  I'll be the first to admit I've never read anything by Pearce, but I'm already a giant fan.  This is mostly because of her YouTube channel, which I highly recommend.  She's so well-spoken, funny and delightfully awkward that I can't help but like her.  I definitely Plan on picking these up sometime soon.


Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill over at Breaking the Spine where bloggers highlight upcoming releases we are drooling over.

My pick this week is:

Fathomless (Fairytale Retellings, #3)
Fathomless by Jackson Pearce

Well I figured I was going with a theme.  Plus this one is a retelling of The Little Mermaid and seriously I will read/buy/watch anything having to do with TLM.  I only wish this one had talking crabs. But we can't have everything I suppose.

Weigh in Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Lauren over at Epilogue where bloggers weigh in on literary topics.

This weeks topic:

Fairytale retelling vs. The original fairytale

Without the original fairytale, we wouldn't really have anything to go off of so I would have to go with the original.  Of course, I still love a good retelling as well.

    Jackson Pearce is a lot of fun, though I prefer As You Wish and Sisters Red to Sweetly, which somehow didn't keep my attention as much. I have Purity on hold from the library now too!

    I've not read a single Jackson Pearce book, but I do have Sisters Red sitting somewhere here on the book case.

    I hope you get them soon!

    Your wish to strangle your brother made me laugh! I feel like strangling my sister sometimes. :) it's like we're from two different planets, I swear.

    Though I like fairytale retellings, you're totally right. Without the original, there wouldn't be anything to retell.

    P.S. ~ You've talked me into it! I'm checking out Pearce! :)
