I love retellings and over the last few months, I want to read them more and more. So today I thought I would share some of the ones that I’m excited to read. I might end up doing another part of this post because I never realised till now how many retellings are currently on my tbr.
There is a mix of new releases, backlist titles, as well as some books that haven’t come out yet. There is also a mix of mythology retellings, classic stories and more. I basically just love any sort of twist on an original story. You should all know by now how much I love my Greek Mythology retellings. So there are quite of few of these on this list. While there is a lot of romance books on here. There are also some young adult and even some adult fiction ones – which I’m super excited for. Now let’s get into it. Like always these are in no order.
Gild (The Plated Prisoner #1) by Raven Kennedy – King Midas retelling | Neon Gods (Dark Olympus #1) by Katee Robert – Hades and Persophone retelling. | Electric Idol (Dark Olympus #2) by Katee Robert – Psyche and Eros – Out January 2022 | Red Hood by Elana K. Arnold – Little Red Riding Hood retelling.
Promises and Pomegranates (Monsters & Muses #1) by Sav R. Miller – Hades and Persophone retelling – Out August 2021 | Entreat Me by Grace Draven – Beauty and the Beast retelling. | Drag Me Up (Gods of Hunger #1) by R.M. Virtues – Hades and Persophone retelling | The Wolf Den by Elodie Harper – not necessarily a retelling, but set in a Pompeii’s lupanar.
Music of the Night (Tower Knights #1) by Angela J. Ford – inspired by The Phantom of the Opera| Ariadne by Jennifer Saint – Theseus and the Minotaur retelling. | Circe by Madeline Miller – Greek Mythology retelling | These Violent Delights (These Violent Delights #1) by Chloe Gong – Romeo and Juliett retelling.
And there we go, those are just some of the retellings currently on my tbr. Have you read any of these? Should I move any of these up on my tbr? What are some of your favourite retellings that you think I should add to my tbr? Let’s Chat!
