4.0

A collection of short stories all inspired by fairy tales. Some of the stories fall flat as they were simply retellings, but this book really shines in its twisted fairy tales. My favorites were "A Real Boy" by Claudia Gray, a touching futuristic story about a robot built to be like a human, and "Beauty and the Chad" by Sarah Rees Brennan, a laugh out loud version of Beauty and the Beast where a modern day frat boy is thrown back in time to be the Beast and Beauty has no idea what he is talking about half the time. Would recommend to anyone looking for fun short stories.
