Fairytales

"I read with a steady diet of fairytales". I love them, I really do, and retellings are one of my favourite things. But the thing is even though I love them, they defenetly have their faults.
           Now I'm talking about the "Prince Charming" and the "Black & Whiteness of the evil step mother". The brothers Grimm of course have great versions, well I suppose they aren't versions if they're the first ones... Well I won't be talking about those ones so here are a couple things.

These are from a movie I just saw, Hallmarks RomCom: Love by the Book.

>You and your perfect guy make the fairytale right for you. He doesn't appear already in shining armour.

>The thing with fairytales is sometimes you need to get out of your tower to find your prince. You can't expect to them find you in a tower.

>And remember that there is no prince charming. It's not a one-fits-all thing, and you just need to find yours.

>Another thing is, sometimes the villain is in sheeps clothing and you can never look at is as a black and white picture. Not all things go to only the other.

>When cinderella went to the ball, she had no idea her life was going to change. She just needed a night out.

My Goodreads Shelves

Link to my GoodReads

I know people are confused by what my shelf names in goodreads mean so here:
(I like to keep the names of them short so it's easy to see what is what for me)

Amongst the "read" "currently-reading" and "to-read" I made a shelf for those that I "didn't_finish_yet-never": this is for both ones I never finished and don't plan on finishing and those that I do still plan on reading.

*have ‎(294)           Suprisingly, these are the ones I own

*review-done ‎(37)         Books I've reviewed 

arc-giveaway-sent4review ‎(14)  Books and ARCs sent for review

at-some-point ‎(0) ‎         Those that I want to own, and have read

bros-books ‎(0)          The books I want to read from my brothers and sisters shelves

classics-awards_read ‎(87)       Books I have read that are classics or have awards

classics-to ‎(9)            Classics I want to read, which I don't own

continuation ‎(21)        Books I own the previus book(s) from but haven't read, and so don't know if I will get. + ones I have read the previous one(s) from and do know that I want to get (just to see how many series I have going on)

graphic-novels ‎(64)   Graphic novels that I've read

library ‎(13)       Books I want to read, but don't know if I want to buy it, so I'll read it from the library first (doesn't work too often since I can't get most books I want to read from the library here)

read-4-school ‎(33)

series-i-ve-finished ‎(47)

series-i-won-t-continue ‎(61)

tbr ‎(13)               My To Be Read pile  (books I own but haven't read)

tbr-classics ‎(5)       My TBR pile for classics (which aren't included in the "TBR" one above)

The last three are related to my TBR:

x-dgt ‎(1)          The books, in my TBR, which I bought before 2016 (if you've been following me, then these are the ones I didn't get to for last years goal. Explained here link)

y-16 ‎(7)        The books I bought last year (2016), and haven't read (so for this years goal, again check previous link)

z-17 ‎(5)          Books I have bought this year, and haven't read (so if unread at the end of the year, then they go to next years goal)
