This is a great collection of stories that take their inspiration from Grimm's Fairytales. Some of the stories are better than others and some are deliciously dark. There is one tale that could be a trigger (it contains incest). That one was a bit difficult to read - no details, but still. These...
I absolutely enjoyed every story in this book. Some were dark and creepy and reminded me of tales for the dark side or like maybe I stepped into the twilight zone. Then others were my favorites like Hanson and Greta. The 3 lil pigs one the beauty and the beast ones they were all amazing and well fit...
This is going in my #LGBT tag because there is at least the Malinda Lo story, but unfortunately its 99% hetero shit. Basically the majority of my thoughts on this anthology was "it could have been gayer, also there was an opportunity for a gay trans man and you missed it." Here are my thoughts now t...
This took me only 10months to read... well, I read at first one story a week... wrote reviews for each.. then I kinda put it aside and never got back into it.

I enjoyed most of these stories, and I don't consider myself a sci-fi/fantasy fan. Some were too gruesome and some just weren't for me. I wish the book had included more authors of color, more characters of color and that all of the stories (with the exception of The Twelfth Girl and part of The Rav...
Grim is an anthology of fairy tale retellings by 17 different authors. I really wish each story had said which fairy tale they were retelling because I was not familiar with each one. Luckily, I was able to find out each one online. I will admit to reading the original before the retelling for any f...
Fairytale retellings are pretty popular right now, so it’s only natural that a anthology focusing on them would be published. Usually I’m not a huge fan of anthologies because I think immediately cash cow. But this particular collection of short stories surprised me. The Key by Rachel Hawkins: I...
