I thought this was quite fascinating, if a little repetitive in parts. (Probably could have cut 50 or so pages, I reckon...) It's sort of a feminist deconstruction of fairy tales, very geared to women readers, and I have to admit it got me looking at some of the stories in a whole new light.

I've always liked fairy tales, but never looked too deeply into them before... I think I might have to search out a few more books like this. I don't know that I was always convinced, reading this, but I was very interested, so four stars from me.
