I love Megan Maslow’s story of Rumplestilskin. It was a rich world with truly bad guys, morally dubious ones and those with hearts of gold. There’s action and sex but also humour and love.

I liked Gruff even though I didn’t like them jumping to conclusions. I do like Fox Hollow though and the fainting goat was cute.

I wasn’t familiar with Bluebeard’s tale but after I looked it up, this was a good retelling. I’d guessed about Dutch early on but liked how things resolved for them. Definitely a fairytale ending.

I loved Rhys Lawless’s reimagined Beauty and the Beast! I hope they write more in this world! There was a lot going on but I really like all the characters.
