I enjoyed some of the stories in this book but did not feel a pull to keep reading it. While I did finish the book it was a struggle to push through. You may enjoy it, and if you are curious I would give it a go.

Before there was inception, there was The Thousand and One Nights. The contents itself were alright. It had some wisdom and great story telling. It’s clever and has an interesting premise, full of strange—and occasionally erotic—myth that carries the story but I just didn’t love it. I can definitely see why others would though.
