OHH I got you! I would recommend A Midwinter's Wedding: A Retelling of The Frog Prince by Melanie Cellier and The Green-Eyed Prince by Brittany Fichter. Both are great retellings with unique twists. Hope you like them! :)

Has anyone read For Biddle's Sake? It's also part of a collection of hilarious short fairytale retellings: The Fairy's Return and Other Princess Tales by Gail Carson Levine. For Biddle's Sake was so funny. The comeuppance was amazing too haha.

Enchanted (Woodcutter Sisters #1; Books of Arilland #1) by Alethea Kontis Enchanted by Alethea Kontis is a retelling of both Jack and the Beanstalk and The Princess and the Frog. It was amazing to see all the levels that was in this story. It was like a freaking crepe cake haha and watching it all tie together in the end was so cool. Definitely recommend!
