Christina Lauren is always an auto read for me and this may not be their usual type of book but it was still so much fun! A YA retelling of Rapunzel is just pure fun! I flew through this one!

This felt like a slow burn that took forever to get going. It wasn’t in the usual style of Christina Lauren. I would recommend this for someone who like cleaner romance and is trying to get into the genre.

This book was ADORABLE. I think it was the perfect balance of Christina Lauren + Disney! All the characters were portrayed perfect + I found myself giggling the entire book! Can't wait to read the rest of the books from this series!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️✨ (3.5/5)

This one was cute but took a bit for me to get invested. It def reads like a YA. The steamiest scene is a kiss. I def prefer CL’s spicier reads.

This was a sweet, lighthearted read until the middle-end which gave more suspenseful vibes.

It was good though and the “The End” page was a cute little quick ending which worked well for the story.

I liked it but it just wasn’t my favorite of CL’s books.

I’ve had this one on my shelf since it released and I finally got around to finishing it. I have a 3 year old daughter so I’m well versed in the world of Tangled, and I think the fact that this book is inspired by Tangled is cute. This book was a quick paced, funny, fluffy, lighthearted story.

It had so many movie references which was great, and it even had a bit of mystery which was unexpected. Based on that, that’s really all the book is. Nothing that stood out too much, but cute, quick and witty if you’re looking for something in the romcom department.

Thank you to Christina Lauren, Hyperion, and NetGalley for the eARC (so many months late, I apologize) in exchange for an honest review!

A modern spin on rapunzel that I truly adored! The story was expected yet unexpected. I loved the mix of mystery with the intentional romance. Besides romance, it was also a story of finding self and discovering oneself outside of what was taught. I loved this one from Christina Lauren!

I have yet to be disappointed by a Christina lauren book! this was a fun project and I enjoyed it from start to finish. it was a good retelling with all the perfect romance that comes from these authors, and this is definitely not the last I’ll read of this multi-author series!

Super cute Rapunzel retelling. Christina Lauren can do no wrong. ❤️

Thank you to NetGalley and Hyperion Avenue for the E-ARC.

All thoughts and opinions are honest and my own.

A reimagining of Disney’s Tangled - Tangled Up in You was a cute and easy weekend read. It came across a little more YA at times, but as always, Christina Lauren delivered a book that kept me interested throughout.

Christina Lauren 🤝 tangled (aka the best Disney movie of all time). Enough said. I absolutely loved it.

I love retellings and this was super cute. I'm normally not the biggest romance genre fan, but I have been known to dip my toes in here and there - and this is definitely one I'm glad to have stumbled upon because I loved it! Rapunzel is one of my favorite fairy tale Princesses, and I was a little concerned about how the romantic modernization would go - but I didn't have anything to worry about! Loved the banter and clever dialogue here, the characters were so witty and fun; you can't always nail that kind of back and forth in a book, but Christina Lauren is great at it and did it again here - love!!

I was honestly so excited I was able to read this book. I am such a Christina Lauren fan and I absolutely will read anything that they write. This book was amazing, loved it and will recommend!

I didn’t know what I was expecting from this book except a fun YA/new adult modern retelling of Tangled/Rapunzel but we got SO much more. Christina Lauren delivered a fantastic story of breaking down walls in order to find the person that you truly are. I kept trying to guess what was going to happen when she got to Kentucky and found her dad and it turned out to be nothing like what I expected.

I loved the characters and I loved their chemistry - I loved the development that both Ren and Fitz experienced and I loved how we saw their relationship development over the course of the book. I was legit shocked by the ending and loved that twist that we got.

Thank you to Hyperion and NetGalley for the e-ARC in exchange for my honest review.

This was a cute retelling of the Disney story. Ren is innocent and let free in the world. She meets Fitz who’s the popular boy on campus! They have adventures together and it’s fun to read.
For me personally I don’t like third person and believe there should be a disclaimer for it lol.
Christina lauren is a hit or miss and this one just didn’t do it for me. Very low romance, which I guess makes sense since it’s based on Disney.

A cute read that was enjoyable. I would recommend this one and I look forward to reading more titles by this author.

✨ I had very low expectations of this book, but bought it cause I love Christina Lauren so much. Turns out, I really liked it!!! ✨

🎆 This book is part of a Disney series based on the movie Tangled (duh) which wasn’t one I’ve watched many times, re: once. I worried it was going to feel childish and naive based on the first few chapters where a very sheltered girl goes off to college.

🎆 The way the naivety is handled makes it more believable and less Disney. The book starts off with a fun and funny road trip filled with cute moments and mishaps, but then delves into a much more serious overall plot line.

🎆 Will this be a favorite CL book for me? No. I really enjoyed my read but found it overall a little forgettable.

🎆 But yall, forgettable doesn’t mean I didn’t love reading it. I definitely did and would definitely recommend as a nice little cute treat, which was exactly what I needed after the slog of All the Colors of the Dark

So if you need something fun that still touches on serious topics, pick this one up

I am a huge Christina Lauren fan and I love the movie Tangled, so I knew this was going to be a good match.

But even knowing that, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it. I expected a simple fairy tale retelling but my favorite author duo upped the stakes into a fun and sometimes thriller romance novel.

I wish we got to see the couple a little more at the end but that book was DELIGHTFUL. I knew Christina Lauren wouldn't disappoint

Well, I think I can tell that I'm a Christina Lauren's fan. I've loved every single book I've read from them. Including this one !

Ren is a 22 years old who has always lived only with her parents, on a homestead, far from every civilization. She's never been to school, nor any activities because her parents didn't want to mix with the rest of the world.
But she manages to convinve them to let her study at University. With strict rules such as not going out of the campus or having social interactions.
She meets Fitz, a rich and hansome boy, but her roommate warns her against him. Yes, he's top of his class, but he's also a player with the girls.
After a science project, she has a striking revelation. And she has to go to Atlanta to confirm her doubts. So she blackmails Fitz, and goes on a road-trip with him. And they begin to learn to know each other. And they're sweet and cute...

This story is a modern retelling of tangled, and I must say, if I didn't know it, I wouldn't have guessed. Because it's really well grounded in our era, and the questioning is really acurate, and the story is really credible.
So, I loved it !

I was very excited to read this contemporary Tangled retelling from Christina Lauren and it was pretty much perfect! I loved that it was more like the movie(I think the original tale of Rapunzel is more angsty and dramatic lol) but it also had many twists and fun surprises!

So, in Tangled Up In You we have Ren who has lived a very sheltered life. Raised on her parents' homestead and homeschooled her whole life, she's pretty excited to finally have the chance to go to college at twenty-two and explore the world - with some conditions from her parents. When she gets to college she meets Fitz, who seems very charming and carefree at first glance. But Fitz has his own set of plans too and Ren showing up to his classes with her academic brilliance has thrown a wrench in them. And in a surprising turn of events, an assignment for an immunology class changes their lives completely and takes them on a road trip with some unexpected turns!

I loved Ren - she was so chatty and fun! It was so nice to see the world through her eyes and I think Fitz loved that too, though he might have found her a bit annoying at first😂 Fitz might seem a bit closed off at first but he is so loyal and caring! Also, loved the fact that his car was named Max - there were so many parallels between the book and the movie! The mystery subplot was a bit fun too - though we, as readers, might know where it is going, the journey along with the road trip was the best part! Though it has a college setting I wouldn't classify this as NA as there's no steam in this one. Overall, this was a very fun and charming Tangled retelling that left me with a huge smile on my face! So, if you're looking for one or if you're just in the mood for a cute rom com, you should definitely pick this one up!❣️✨

I just LOVED this book. Was funny and I loved the similarities to "Tangled" while still being it's own story. Would totally recommend or read again!

Thank you to Netgalley & the publisher for the advance copy!
