Absolutely love how they have the real view of all the Disney fairytales, definitely not a book to read to kids but great or young adults and adults!!

I was super excited to read this one, but it wasn’t as good as I expected. The stories were either repeats of a different one, with different characters etc or just stupid. I’m not sure if my book was different because I got it for free off of the Apple Bookstore, but the version I read didn’t have any of the popular fairytales in it. Cinderella, Snow White, etc. I was looking forward to reading some grotesque fairytales but I guess I’ll just have to keep looking!

Anyone who says fairy tales are only for children haven't read The Complete Grimm's Fairy Tales by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm. Some of these tales are dark, twisted, grim, and definitely not Disneyfied, an adult would even say, whatthefck, Brothers Grimm!

Meh

It was odd!

Some of the stories, like Rapunzel and Hansel&Gretal, I knew but there were countless others that were in this volume that I had never come across before. On top of that, not all of them had happy endings or any form of moral or caution within them. Some characters were just wholly unlucky!

A good read for this with a busy lifestyle as each story is short and sweet and can be fitted around everyday life.
