A review by pine_wulf
Snow White, Blood Red by Ellen Datlow, Terri Windling
3.0
Ones that stood out:
The Moon is Drowning While I Sleep - beautifully written, I should seek out more De Lint
Little Red - well written, but disturbing and kind of gross
The Root of the Matter - Very moving. I'm so glad this ended the way it did. If it had ended badly it would have been deeply unsatisfying. There was enough misery going on already.
The Princess in the Tower - This was cute. A nice contrast to the darkness of the preceding stories.
The Springfield Swans - Amusing if a bit strait-forward
Troll Bridge - I'm not always super into Gaiman, but I liked this one pretty good. It was a little sad.
A Sound, Like Angels Singing - The story was OK, but I liked the reveal of which fairytale this was a retelling of.
Puss - This one had such a bad beginning for me. Cat abuse right at the start nearly put me off from even reading it, but it was interesting after you get past that.
