#AmReading Heartless by Marissa Mayer | Retell-a-thon #Readathon | JULY 8 - 15, 2018 | @retellathon #retellathon2018

July is jammed pack with reading challenges, read alongs, and read-a-thons. It's books gone wild.

I plan to read Heartless by Marissa Mayer for the Retell-a-thon category UNHAPPILY EVER AFTER.

Long before she was the terror of Wonderland—the infamous Queen of Hearts—she was just a girl who wanted to fall in love.

Are you planning to participate? What are you going to read?

as you can see we're mostly focusing on fairy tales, but retellings of any story (popular fiction, history, the first time your parents met) are fair game!
