The only one I fully through was the Beauty and the Beast retelling since I love BATB. I really wasn't interested in reading the other ones.

The Warlord and the Nightingale
In start was little difficult to follow in the start and feel likes too many details. It could be better if the pace was quick. I want Lord Mizunaga to be dead but not with hands of both Yura or Hanzo. It was an unexpected end for me.
I’ll give it 2.5 stars

A Happily ever after of her own
It was kind of modern fairy-tale with some twists. Although I liked to read different versions of fairy tales this one’s story couldn’t grab me with all my interest.
I’ll give it 3 stars.

Kiss That Frog
It was also a combination of modern life and fairy-tale. One of the best version of frog and princess. It was a sweet love story of Sophia and Alex, easy to read, exact length for a short story.
I’ll give it 4 stars.

P.s. Yeah there is magic in little things

Runespell
I don’t know the real fairy-tale of this one. It was interesting to Norse myth and shapeshifter bear. Although ending left me somehow unclear.

I’ll give it 3 stars.
There was too much physical contact so I don't think they are inspired by fairy tales

Overall the stories were really cute, I enjoyed their take on each take, but it just wasn't watch had expected. It was good, don't get me wrong, just not as good as I hoped we'll say.

Some highs and some lows. Unfortunately not my cup of tea. Romance is not my genre.

I love fairytales with a twist. I like the different settings. They are short sweet stories that are warped up quick. They are modern versions where the princess saves the prince in one case, or the prince doesn’t really love the princess and instead falls for a modern women that can step into fairytales. I didn't like them all, my favorite was actually Snow's Salvation. I would like a huntsman of my own.

Like with most collections, it has some stories that are easier to get into or like than others. However, the stories in this collection aren't exactly bad. It probably wouldn't be someone's cup of tea if they aren't interested in romance or fairy tales or both. For me, I liked the stories, though some are definitely better than others. I didn't find one that I flat out hated so I can say that, for me, some of the stories in the collection are just average.

I love fairytales and I likes these ones very much.
They're very well written and perfect for a little brak because they're not to long.

I loved every one of these stories!! I love Fairy tales, so reading these stories made it better!!

A fantastic boxset with such wonderful stories by brilliant authors. There is a story in there for everyone in this amazing boxset that you will come to love even more than one, like me 😊 there was the whole 11. Would tell everyone to get this boxset as it will give you loads of enjoyable hours of reading pleasure

While in the process of reading this anthology, I will update with reviews of the individual stories.

The Warlord and the Nightingale by Jeannie Lin ★★★
(based on The Nightingale)

A lovely story set in feudal Japan. Told with the style and imagery of that era which distances the reader a bit from the story and characters, but it's beautiful to read. My only complaint is the ending, where the action takes place "off camera" and the vague wrap up is rather unsatisfying.

A Happily Ever After of Her Own by Nadia Lee ★★
(based on Beauty and the Beast - sort of)

The premise was cute (regular girl dropped into fairy tales wreaks havoc) but the story was choppy. I had a hard time believing our heroine hadn't already explored all the fairy tales, having had the ability most her life, and that being the case why she hadn't been caught before (or at the very least figured out Beast was awesome and Prince Charming was not).

Kiss that Frog by Cate Rowan ★★★
(based on The Frog Prince)

The heroine was cute but I had a hard time believing that she was willing to give it a big smooch within hours of expressing complete revulsion to the creature. A big plot hole in the Prince's backstory made me side eye, but given the restrictions of a short story I gave it a pass.

Runespell by Sela Carsen ★★★★
(based on East of the Sun and West of the Moon)

I really enjoyed this one. So much so, that I've looked into Carsen's other books and will be trying one of them as well—the highest praise for a short story.

After the Stroke of Midnight by Jennifer Lewis ★★
(based on Cinderella)

I'm not a fan of the billionaire trope, and I just didn't believe the couple's connection went beyond lust. It seemed to drag on and on.

Braided Silk by Ella Drake ★★★
(based on Rapunzel)

I appreciated the unique spin on Rapunzel's hair and thought the world building was interesting.

Loving a Fairy Godmother by Danielle Monsch ★★★★★
(based on Cinderella)

This story is worth the price of the entire collection. Lovely, inventive little romance retelling that left me grinning and following Monsch on social media. Will definitely be picking up one of her full length works in the future!

It's well written, but not really my genre. I just couldn't get past the names of the characters A little too far fetched for my liking.

Fairy tales with a spin or two! Very delightful read, some modernized, added romance and yet still retain that charming quality of the stories we all know and love.

This was a cute collection of fairy tale stories with modern flair. I won’t go into detail about each individual story because they have been well covered in other reviews. My favourites were “A Happily Ever After of Her Own” by Nadia Lee. A sweet twist on the Beauty and the Beast Story; and “Loving a Fairy God Mother” by Danielle Monsch because who hasn’t wondered just what the God Mothers get up to when they are not saving the princesses!

This boxset is routinely on special and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you grab a copy next time. The majority of the stories are short enough that it won’t take a huge commitment to read one, but long enough that you can enjoy the characters and their world. It’s a light, sometimes funny, always romantic, read and pure escapism.

a brilliant collection of stories, loved the different takes on modern day fairy tales. love the romance, pure escapism.

This book had eleven different stories based on fairytales some traditional and some I had never heard of. All 11 stories were very interesting. One of my favorites was Loving a fairy godmother. It was very light hearted and funny. Some of the tales were dark but still had happy endings. All in all this was a good read.

Book NEVER downloaded. I can't properly rate this book.

I really can' t give a fair review on this book as I never had a chance to finish it. Every time I would try to read it , it was messed up on my kindle. I have no problem with other books, just this one.

I made my way through this collection of fairytales that have been reinterpreted for contemporary times. I found them a mixed bag to be honest. Some I liked well enough, others not so much, because they failed to engage my interest. Nevertheless, I am very glad to have read them and I think others might really like them..

I loved these stories!! They were perfect short stories! I loved some more than others but overall they were worth the long read! What I loved most about them as they were done right! Even though it might have seemed like insta-love the story was believable and well written!
