Short, well-done audiobook. While listening, there were times I thought "wow, this is so '90s!" and other times when I was sad to realize how little has changed. :( I wish I hadn't known what this book was a retelling of before I read it, as I think the plot would have been quite unexpected otherwise. So, read it without knowing anything about it if you can! (Hence this very vague review haha.)
