An interesting and easy-to-read collection of reskinned fairy tales, each subsequent one an exploration of a side character in the previous one, all the way back to the original story about witches and love and choosing how you want to live. I appreciate that many of these are reworked versions of the classic fairy tales and some are queer. Enjoyable, and a very easy read.
