Grim by Ellen Hopkins, Julie Kagawa, Amanda Hocking
3.0
This collection of short stories is narrated by Christine Johnson and I enjoyed her narration. Some stories are good and promising, some are just horrible.
The Key by Rachel Hawkins - The psychic story is a good start but it was cut too short and ended vaguely. [3.5/5 stars]
Figment by Jeri Smith- Ready - A sweet friendship between Eli and Fig. I really like it. [4/5 stars]
The Twelfth Girl by Malinda Lo - I fell asleep on some parts. So boring. [1/5 stars]
The Raven Princess by Jon Skovron - I like this. [3/5 stars]
Thinner than Water by Saundra Mitchell -The darkness of the story shook me. The king married his daughter but the author's writing style is compelling which is a win for me. Out of the retellings, this one stood out for me. [4.5/5 stars]
Before the Rose Bloomed by Ellen Hopkins - This Snow Queen retelling fell flat. [1/5 stars]
Beast / Beast by Tessa Gratton - A great retelling of Beauty and the Beast [4/5 stars]
The Brothers Piggett by Julie Kagawa - This is an okay story. Kinda weird. [2/5 stars]
Untethered by Sonia Gensler - [3/5 stars] - Good writing style but not a fan of the story.
Better by Shaun David Hutchinson - Better than I expected. Wonderful story indeed! [4/5 stars]
Light It Up by Kimberly Derting - [2 /5 stars] - A "meh" retelling of Hansel and Gretel.
Sharper Than a Serpent's Tongue by Christine Johnson - It's okay and kinda miss. [2/5 stars]
A Real Boy by Claudia Gray - [3/5 stars] - I'm not familiar of this retelling but it's good.
Beauty and the Chad Sarah Rees Brennan - Why are Beauty and the Beast retellings are good? It's so adorable [4/5 stars]
The Pink by Amanda Hocking - Another retelling I'm not familiar with. It's good but the ending was a bit boring. [3/5 stars]
Sell Out by Jackson Pearce - This can be good but the ending just... [3.5/5 stars]
