In this classic young adult novel, JK Rowling weaves a magic tapestry filled with

intriguing characters, plot twists, fantastical creatures, and heartwarming moments. Harry Potter,

Entwined

★★★★

Rated by Anne G
Sep 6, 2022

Entwined is a fairy-tale inspired fiction of the story The Twelve Dancing Princesses. It's a suspenseful retelling. If I'm honest, the folktale that inspired this fantasy fiction was never been one of my favorites. This author manages to take a rather thin story and turn it into something interesting with a hero that is a strong woman of steel! This atmospheric version is my favorite retelling.
