so so boring

The Brothers Grimm has been a name I've known since childhood, but I had never read their stories til now. From the hype, I expected way gruesome and gorey tales, but there was only one story with a pit of blood and dismembered bodies. All of the tales are kinda odd, and are repeated/altered in some. For most I couldn't gain a life lesson or a main point from pretty much every story; they are all rambling and twisty. Takes a while to get used to some of the language, but they were all entertaining. Feel like this is a nice bathroom book, to pick up and read any of the 99 at random, then put down again. The shortest is half a page, the longest maybe 5 pages. Easy to munch your way through.

Glad to have read it all, probably won't ever do it again.

Had it as my casual read in between books. It was so entertaining and fun to see where the original stories come from.

Turns out the Grimm Brothers are really creepy. Also, lots of run-on sentences and some incorrect grammar. Really good shock value, though.
