A review by lacyduckie
Grim by Julie Kagawa, Rachel Hawkins

4.0

I've decided that I have a love/hate relationship with short story collections. I usually only end up liking a few stories but I also like the fact that I can read an entire story when I don't have a lot of time to read.

Some of the stories in Grim were kind of weird and disturbing but others were good and I wish were longer.

My favorite stories were The Twelfth Girl by [a:Malinda Lo|2884780|Malinda Lo|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1241172048p2/2884780.jpg], The Raven Princess by [a:Jon Skovron|2828923|Jon Skovron|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1339610057p2/2828923.jpg], Better by [a:Shaun David Hutchinson|3130410|Shaun David Hutchinson|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1387295428p2/3130410.jpg], and A Real Boy by [a:Claudia Gray|1192311|Claudia Gray|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1234643683p2/1192311.jpg].

A Real Boy was my absolute favorite and reminded me of [b:Defy the Stars|31423196|Defy the Stars (Constellation, #1)|Claudia Gray|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1484967166s/31423196.jpg|47841519] and [b:Defy the Worlds|34942737|Defy the Worlds (Constellation, #2)|Claudia Gray|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1513817502s/34942737.jpg|56211536] which are also written by Claudia.

I bought the hardcover copy of Grim and it's pink and black and beautiful. It even comes with one of those attached ribbon bookmarks. 🔖📚😍
