Recs if you like Prince of Shadows...

The bard's stories, but different.

These books return to Shakespeare’s stories and let them bloom anew, tracing familiar plots through fresh voices and altered fates. Here, old quarrels find new ground, lovers cross re‑drawn paths, and kingdoms rise again in different light.

I work at a bookstore and sometimes I bring people into the middle grade/ya section and am like...hey...I know we are above the age of 13, but trust me, these are amazing 10/10 and you should read. These are some of those books :)

Also feel free to suggest your favs too! Especially the ones that you never hear anyone talk about!!

Retellings of European fairytales, legends, and classics that I've had lots of fun with, books ranging from obscure to mainstream
