![]() These are not really related to the Grisha-sphere and I think that was where I had most of my issues. I wish I had read the author's note first because as Bardugo explains, these are stories the characters would have heard growing up, much like we did with the original tales. I kept trying to figure out if there were parts that related to the trilogy and I couldn't find many. If I had gone in knowing that Bardugo wrote these and that they were fairytales with a unique spin, I would have loved them a lot more. They are a solid collection of fairytale reimaginings, but they weren't marketed that way. I think the biggest issue I have with this book was that it really has very little to do with the Grishaverse. If I had known that going in, I think I would have been more interested and would have liked it better, 3/5 stars. ![]() It had an origin story of Ursula from the Little Mermaid vibe, which was interesting, but I didn't really figure that out until the ending. I also didn't love this one as much as the others. ![]()
