Grim consists of 17 dark fantasy shorts inspired by classic fairy tales from some big names and some lesser-known names in YA and obviously, as with any anthology I preferred some stories to others.
Faves:
The Twelfth Girl by Malinda Lo. Reminded me of being stuck in a fairy circle. Queer, f/f kissing. I want a full-length version! I want Liv to save Harley and I want to know all about the fairy world they sneak into. 5/5.
The Raven Princess by Jon Skovron. A soft-hearted hunter, a cursed princess, and gay giants - enough said. 5/5.
Beast/Beast by Tessa Gratton. A beauty and the beast retelling that is fairly close to original, but different enough to make it fresh and really enjoyable – But I do love the original. 5/5.
The Pink by Amanda Hocking. A child stolen, then later a family reunited. Bad guys butt kicked. A super cute and fluffy read. 5/5.
