Every year in Sophie and Agatha's village two children are taken away. The children are always opposites of each other: one kind, one mean; one handsome, one ugly, etc. The children never return, but a new book of fairy tales arrives every year, and children will sometimes recognize one of their for...
So. This book. It’s sort of an alternative fairy tale . . . ish. More Brothers Grimm than Disney. It’s dark and violent. Kids are tortured and unfairly punished and people are straight-up murdered. It’s light and funny. It pokes unmerciful fun at fairy tale tropes while at the same time embrac...
1/2 stars. Doesn't even deserve that.I seriously considered not adding this book, it was that bad, but I guess that people deserve to see the bad reviews so that they can decide if they want to read it.The premise for this book was very good, but the execution was a fail.I kept thinking of the chara...
