Rapunzel, Rapunzel let down your hair with Don't Fall by Rachel Schieffelbein . For all those fans like myself who are in love with Rendition books then you will enjoy this one as it is a rendition of Rapunzel. Anya lives with her adoptive mother in a cottage house at the end of town and only lets her go to the library twice a week on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The rest of the time , she is kept under strict watch in her house. It is on one of these Tuesdays or was it a Thursday that Anya first noticed Zander and took his photo while he was reading a book in the library.  Soon the pair start talking and eventually one thing leads to another and so begins their weekly Tuesday and Thursday rituals of meeting and getting to know one another. There is one thing though that Anya yearns for and that is the freedom to date as she is nearly eighteen but her mother won't let her and we soon discover the reasons and the past history of why her mother won't let her date etc.  Can Anya finally with the help of Zander stand up to her mother and plead with her to let her live her life and not cower in fear of what might or might not happen ?This was such an awesome read and I really enjoyed it , I liked the fact too was that it was clean so any age can read it and as I am sucker for renditions, the fact it was a rendition of Rapunzel, definitely sealed my loveness for the book.I look forward to seeing whether Rachel Schieffelbein will choose to retell any of the other fairytales like other authors e.g Alex Flinn has done before.
