FLAWLESS is a modern retelling of the Cyrano story in which a senior-class salutatorian with a notable nose agrees to help her perfectly gorgeous best friend catch the eye of the new hottie at school, only to discover he's actually the perfect guy for her.
Sooo...I'm kind of a major nerd (*le gasp*) and I really love Cyrano de Bergerac. Yep, I said it. Even watched Roxanne.
So my little nerd-self kinda can't wait for this to come out. And it's from the POV of a girl! I think this could be really fun, but also I think it could go beyond the normal fun story, and hit home with a lot of girls.
Any of you wanting this one?
What's on your wishlist?
I LOVE Cyrano de Bergerac!! I haven't seen Roxanne, but I've read the play (and own a really pretty copy) and I've seen the movie in French w/ subtitles. LOVE it!! I'll have to think about this one... I don't normally like a lot of actual books being retold, but this one intrigues me.
ReplyDeleteI love books that retell a classic - this looks fun!
