Zzzzzz was for most of the loooong story. Granted, I am not a fan of the fairy tale (Twelve Princess Dancing) but I've read another retelling book that was fantastic ([b:The Princess Curse|9588207|The Princess Curse|Merrie Haskell|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1299897431s/9588207.jpg|14475179]) and ...

I felt that this book was not for me some others may enjoy it but I felt from what I read it was repetitive and dull finally I gave up on this book and moved on but it's worth a shot if you would like to read it -"there is no such thing as bad books only better ones " by unknown

I liked Azalea. She is a unique character to be created (at least as a main character) in this day and age. She's strong enough to cope with her mother's death, and being forced into a mother-like role, and comfort her sisters, yet weak enough to throw tantrums, actually be endangered by the villain...

I'm still having doubts with my rating...I picked this book up without really expecting anything, so I believe that was a nice outlook because it paved the way for me to simply enjoy the dancing, magic and the lightheartedness of the entire reading. Some parts felt like they were dragged too long an...

When I first started reading Entwined, I have to admit I thought it would be a rather mediocre fairy tale retelling. It was pushed even further into the realm of possible disappointment because The Twelve Dancing Princesses is among my favorite fairy tales and I had already read the fabulous Princes...

As much as I like the Twelve Dancing Princesses fairy tale, this was not its strongest retelling. (Spoilers may lie ahead.)Characters: I was less than pleased with the main character, Princess Azalea. Her tendency to relate everything she sees and does through a dance metaphor or simile was a contri...

It’s very well written, and although the plot is a little slow to start off, I think it’s essential for it to go at that pace. It introduces the reader to a detailed world with a good amount of characters to read about. The sisters in the book are distinct enough so the reader can figure out who is ...
