Great Variety

I’ve been trying to get more into fairy tales lately. As someone who has never read Grimm Stories I had nothing to relate it to. As is usual with many short story collections, there were some stories I thoroughly enjoyed, and there were some I didn't like in the slightest. It's took a little longer than I'd hoped to get around to reading this, but I'm happy I finally have. It is a classic read, but there were some stories I could relate to more than others. There were some I remember being read to me as a child that had a twist to the original I’ve never heard before. To be honest though, these versions of the fairy tales are somewhat dark, and one could even go as far as calling them chilling. I loved it.
All of these stories contain some sort of message and a purpose, and I thought that it was a good deal of fun to figure those out.
