What a beautiful cover. I remember when I first saw it my initial thought was, Oh, please don't let it suck . I know that sounds harsh, but sometimes a cover just calls out to you and you know when you finally hold a physical copy of the book itself you'll just want to stroke it and love it and tell it it's found its home on your shelves. Unfortunately, the innards (as my boy is fond of saying) don't always match the outtards. And then I am forced to cry. Because . . . so pretty. So when a review copy of Stacey Jay 's Juliet Immortal came my way, I held my breath. Just a bit. Okay, maybe for the first five pages or so. Thankfully, that's all it took. Because this innovative retelling (of sorts) of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet has teeth. And they sank into me with delicious ferocity. This was my first foray with Stacey Jay , though I know she has a handful of books already out. After this encounter, I look forward to checking out her other work. Juliet...
How exciting!!! This is going to be good.

It looks soooo good.
ReplyDeleteI can't help it, I think so, too!
DeleteWow! That looks good. I just hope it's better than some of the other fairy tale adaptations that debuted in recent years.
ReplyDeleteAmen to that, my friend.
DeleteThis. Looks. AWESOME!
ReplyDeleteIt really does. I can't wait to find out where they go with it.
DeleteAh, Maleficent was always my favorite Disney cartoon villian. I am definitley seeing this movie. :)
ReplyDeleteMine, too. How can we not see this one?
DeleteI read somewhere that Jolie's kids are going to be in this movie too. I think that little blonde girl in the meadow is one of them.
ReplyDeleteSeriously? That is bizarre.
