My Rating: 4 stars Warning: Contains spoilers As a Retelling: The kindle edition doesn’t have a cover photo for who knows what reason, and the lighting conditions weren’t ideal. Side note: Please excuse the rather horrendous picture. ![]() Ultimately I just bought the ebook because it seemed that the library copy was never going to come. Welcome back to Fairy Tale Friday!

When I responded that I actually like baseball, she laugh and told me then it was actually about baseball if I wanted it to be.
