How to Be Eaten was unique and well written, but it was just OK for me. I loved the premise of each "fairytale" lady getting to tell her story and it being therapeutic. I agree totally. My favorite part of knowing each back story. It was fun, but it wasn't what I expected and it didn't wow me. And the ending was a shocker, but kinda fell flat for me. Not to mention the author kept using big words like they were trying to wow us with their extensive vocabulary. I don't like the pretentiousness. Overall, it had a good message and you get to revisit some fairytales.
