Have you ever read a retelling of the Rumpelstiltskin fairy tale? I havenβt, and that is why I was so intrigued by GILDED by Marissa Meyer. Iβve been a fan of Meyerβs writing for quite a few years now and have always enjoyed her ability to recreate classic fairy tales and make them her own.
This time, she takes on the famous story of a girl cursed by the god of lies. Serildaβs talent lies in the fact that she was spin riveting stories. However, they are all made-up stories. Or thatβs what people think...
I very much enjoyed GILDED. It had a lot of the classic elements that make this story so familiar and known to the world. However, Meyer does bring in her own twists and turns to the story that makes it unique. I wasnβt a huge fan of the original tale all that much before starting this book. However, I now find myself interested in reading more.
You canβt go wrong with Marissa Meyer. With her ability to create her own set of spellbinding stories, sheβs definitely not an author that you want to miss!
