I loved this. There are stories for all tastes and with very modern twists. These stories mix dark fantasy, urban fantasy, science fiction, historical fiction, lgbtqi + characters, heroines who do not seek to be saved by the prince, villains, everything!

There are many stories in this collection that I would give everything to be novels, This retellings are amazing and despite being short they are of a high quality and bring out emotions

You can read about a little red riding hood escaping from the Nazis. A beast that falls in love with a very beautiful man, the Queen of Hearts interrogating Pinocchio about Alice's misadventure, and many other great stories.

I loved this book in general, The concept was great, it was very original when i knew better the original tales, I could understand the nuances added to the story and enjoy far more, I could see the difference with the few I didn't know. I wish we had also the country the fairy tales comes from. Otherwise it was really good, of course, I have preferences because different authors and everything can't be to our taste, my personal favourite were Pinocchio and The swan and bellerophoron with those twists. I would love Rule of Threes more developed too.
A real good anthology to read mostly for SFF and fantasy fans
