Waiting on Wednesday - Entwined

Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine

Entwined by Heather Dixon
Publisher: Greenwillow Books
Publication Date: March 29, 2011

Summary from Goodreads:  Azalea and her younger sisters dance in the mysterious silver forest every night, escaping from the sadness of the palace and their father’s grief. What they don’t understand—although as time passes they begin to get an inkling of the danger they are in—is that the mysterious and dashing Keeper is tightening his snare with deadly purpose. Luckily, Azalea is brave and steadfast. Luckily, a handsome young army captain also has his eye on Azalea. . . .

According to Publisher's Weekly, Entwined is a retelling of the Twelve Dancing Princesses, which is my absolute favorite fairy tale.  I read my copy of The Twelve Dancing Princesses until it was literally falling apart.  I always pretended I was one of the princesses and thought it would be so much fun to sneak out and dance all night.

What are you waiting on this Wednesday?
