2019 Retellings Reading Challenge Sign-Up and TBR


When I found out about the 2019 Retellings Reading Challenge, hosted by Tracy at Cornerfolds, I knew I couldn't pass it up!  I don't read a ton of retellings, but I do have quite a few on my TBR that I want to get to.

To get all the details about the challenge, visit Cornerfolds here.  Pretty much any retelling, in any genre, in any book form, counts - and you can use books from other challenges, too!  You can earn points by writing reviews and linking up quarterly.  There's also a Bingo element to earn even more points!


There are five challenge levels:


  • Silent Assassin: 1-5 Retellings
  • Warrior Princess: 6-10 Retellings
  • Elemental Witch: 11-15 Retellings
  • High Fae: 16-20 Retellings
  • Fairest of them All: 21-25+ Retellings

  • For now, I am going to aim for Warrior Princess, but things could always change!  Here are the books I'm hoping to get to:


    What retellings are you going to read in 2019?

    3. Oooh, I hadn't heard of this challenge before. I may have to do this one because I do love a good retelling.

    4. The only thing better than a retelling challenge is that it involves BINGO!!! I have to work this one in. Good luck! You have some great books lined up for this one.

    6. Good luck on your challenge Mary! I never get around to retellings, so this might be a good challenge for me so that I can give them a higher priority! I'm also not that great at keeping up with challenges though, so we'll see if I decide to join! Either way, I hope you have a wonderful time reading all the retellings this upcoming year. :)

      1. Thanks, Gennifer! I tried to keep my TBR small, so I have less to keep track of, and if I surpass it, great!
