Wishlist Wednesday #37

Wishlist Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Dani over @Pen to Paper and is a great way of showing off the books that we are dying to get our hands on :)

 Poison - Sarah Pinborough


 A beautiful, sexy, contemporary retelling of the classic Snow White fairy tale, illustrated by Les Edwards.

POISON is a beautifully illustrated retelling of the Snow White story which takes all the elements of the classic fairytale that we love (the handsome prince, the jealous queen, the beautiful girl and, of course, the poisoning) and puts a modern spin on the characters, their motives and their desires. It's fun, contemporary, sexy, and perfect for fans of ONCE UPON A TIME, GRIMM, SNOW WHITE AND THE HUNTSMAN and more.

I really want to get my hands on this! I love fairy tale retellings but this looks like an adult one of Snow White and just looks really good. I also absolutely love that cover and I'm dying to buy the hardback copy. I think later in the year two other books are being released; Charm a retelling of Cinderella and Beauty a retelling of Sleeping Beauty. I just really really want them but can't justify buying a new book off amazon at the moment! Maybe in a few weeks (if I don't give in before that!)
