I'm rating this higher than Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom cause it just left me in awe. I've never been a huge fan of short stories, but every single one of these were beautifully written. They gave me chills. And I loved the twists we got on the original fairy tales. The stories are dark and haunting, and a bit disturbing, but they fit the atmosphere of this world so well.

My favourites have to be The Witch of Duva (which I think I'll have nightmares about for a while) and When Water Sang Fire. I was not expecting the twist at the end of The Witch of Duva. IT WAS DISTURBING AND HORRIBLE. But like really well done. When Water Sang Fire was beautifully sad and heartbreaking and poor Ulla honestly.

The Solider Prince was creeeeepy. I did not like it, but I also did. Like I said, I had shivers while reading some of these stories. The end of this one had me going nononononono
