While I did not initially enjoy the second chapter of Trina Spillman's Setting the Record Straight as much as I had the first, it grows on me the more that I think about it.
It is still a solid piece of erotic storytelling, and one that has a lot of fun with fairy tale tropes, but where The Big Bad Wolf and Cinderella felt a little deeper in the storytelling, putting the emphasis squarely on the fairy tales being explored, Snow White and Peter Pan balances the eroticism and humor with some creative world-building and character development.
As it turns out, that is not at all a bad thing. I loved the teases about Maggie McCullough's magic pen and her rather fuzzy past, and the way Spillman humanizes Greta Grimhilde (editor of The Daily Mirror) while still keeping her edge is rather delightful. Originally, I felt like I wanted more of the fairy tale characters themselves - especially Pan and Hook - but once I thought about it, and considered them in the context of Greta's story, my appreciation grew by leaps and bounds.
The truth about Snow White is, far and away, the best part of the novel. It puts a contemporary spin on the classic story, and twists it from something fearful into something loving and tragic. Less of a parallel telling and more of a new telling that touches on the original tropes of the evil stepmother, poisoned apple, seven dwarves, and true love's kiss. It is erotic, kinky, and delightfully amusing, and it opens up the deeper revelations about Greta that come through the story of Peter Pan. I did feel as if the story of Pan, Hook, and Tink was a little rushed, more an outline than an erotic story of its own, with Maggie rushing away from the story a little too quickly, but that is a minor quibble.
There are many more stories to be told, of course, and that does not include the truth about Maggie herself. Snow White and Peter Pan was a fun read, and I am looking forward to more.

I love these short story books! I am reading two nonfiction books and have a lot of stress right now. This book was a perfect fix. It continues the retelling or setting straight of fairy tales that we all know. They are just the perfect amount of naughty with lots of laughter. They have a story line, but I don't need cliff notes.

I have been very lucky and working with authors that I love reading their books also blessed with their stories.
I love a good fairy tale especially when turns naughty.
in this book, we cinderellas/evil witch story and the peter pans one.
First of all, I loved the cinderellas story and how it panned out. Very clever how it depicted cinderella and the evil stepmom which is not evil so much.
I can’t say about the contents of the story otherwise I ruin it but loved part one.
Part two I was most excited about but didn’t enjoy it as much as I thought I would. Now people will say oh because it had same-sex couple, no actually loved that part. I just wanted more of their story and their sex life because I find super sexy people writing about any kind of love story or I guess sex story as long as good. Which it was, but not long enough.
Trina gives use more! I love me a good story that is long enough to melt my panties and my heart.
In overall love this series I only wished they were long books so I can soak up the goodness.

I want to say between 3.25 and 3.5
The writing style definitely improved and there is a little bit of plot behind the words which it didn’t hurt.
