Commentary In Pursuance Of Books Grounded: The Adventures of Rapunzel (Tyme #1)

In all of Tyme, from the Redlands to the Grey, no one is as lucky as Rapunzel. She lives in a magic tower that obeys her every wish; she reads wonderful books starring herself as the heroine; her hair is the longest, most glorious thing in the world. And she knows this because Witch tells her so---her beloved Witch, who protects her from evil princes, the dangerous ground under the tower, even unhappy thoughts. Rapunzel can't imagine any other life. Then a thief named Jack climbs into her room to steal one of her enchanted roses. He's the first person Rapunzel's ever met who isn't completely charmed by her (well, the first person she's met at all, really), and he is infuriating-- especially when he hints that Witch isn't telling her the whole truth. Driven by anger at Jack and her own nameless fears, Rapunzel descends to the ground for the first time, and finds a world filled with more peril than Witch promised ... and more beauty, wonder, and adventure than she could have dreamed.

Piece Of Books Grounded: The Adventures of Rapunzel (Tyme #1)

This book took a while--about fifty pages--to hit its stride. The beginning is so boring and confusing that I nearly gave up...but then it got really good. I loved Rapunzel (and her character development, wow) and Jack and I really really loved the world-building (the Shattering might be my new favorite backstory). I loved the way Morrison thought out the psychological results of being locked in a tower your whole life. Negatives:--The beginning is SO DULL. Creative and original and really good.

WOW!!! junior fiction has come a long way since I was younger. I am definitely really enjoying fairy tale retellings. What a beautiful story. Just when I thought I knew what was going to happen Morrison just flips everything around. Her themes of love, acceptance and loyalty are written so beautifully. This is just a fantastic book for anyone to read. I absolutely love how the events came together. Around the middle of the book I started to waver on it but good thing I didn't stray too far.

Sometimes, I'll finish a book and wish I had the sequel in my hands that very instant. With 'Grounded', I didn't have the problem of wanting the next book in the series - I wanted the next six! Sheltered Rapunzel is the perfect character to introduce us to the world of Tyme. There are moments of humor as enemy-turned-travel companion Jack, 'the Beanstalker', explains things the reader already knows, and clever bits of world building as he explains things unique to this story-land. (view spoiler)

3.5 stars - I was torn on how to rate this book because I took me a long time to feel invested in the story and the characters, but after the halfway point I loved it. So I am rounding this up to 4 stars on Goodreads, because I do think this book is worthwhile to read and I want to continue with the series.The first half dragged for me I think because it took me a while to like Rapunzel as a character. She understandably is naive, but I found her very frustrating to listen to and feel sympathy

BECAUSE MORGAN DECIDED TO BE SNEAKY. THANK YOU, MORGAN =D

Synopsis- Rapunzel lived in a tower, and she had everything she wanted. Witch gave it to her. Witch loved her. And Rapunzel was happy. That is, until a boy climbs her tower and claims that theyve met. Even weirder, they met Yesterday. But how is that possible? Rapunzel would have remembered. So, Rapunzel decides hes lying. Yet somehow, he has her handkerchief. Could what he say be true? Then, he steals a rose and runs off. What choice does Rapunzel have? She follows him. And thus begins the

This was a really unique retelling. Its one of Rapunzel with a little Jack and the Beanstalk thrown in. The twist is that Rapunzel is not at all resentful of the with that had imprisoned her. She is sympathetic. At first it seems like Stockholm syndrome but it turns out to be more that she just thinks of her as a mother and believes there is good in the witch. I ended up really enjoying this book. The audiobook was well produced and really entertaining to listen to. Ill definitely be listening
