A marvelous collection. The new, reimagined tales are at the front of the book; the originals (Grimm, Hoffman, Andersen, Perrault) are at the back.
Quotes
"It's as if there's always been a rope around my ankle, but I've only just noticed it." (In the Forests of the Night, Gita Trelease, 25)
Maybe that's why she pushes so hard to turn me into a mirror. After all, if I grow up to be her, I can't grow up to be me. (Mother's Mirror, H.E. Edgmon, 85)
It wasn't the fence that kept you out of the Pencil Factory; it was the suburban legends. (The Sister Switch, Melissa Albert, 152)
...her words turned over in his mind, rocks with squirmy things hiding beneath them. (156)
He circled the cottage, high on the feeling of being both wronged and right. (165)
When one is desperate, one does leap to conclusions. (The Emperor and the Eversong, Tracy Deonn, 221)
"Beliefs are much stronger than superstition and more effective than rumor. It does not matter if a belief is true or false, it only matters that it persists and spreads." (223)
An invisibility spell is only interesting if you believe you're worth noticing. (HEA, Alex London, 242)
It was a fantasy, but one they'd both started to create together. Meeting someone new was like that, making up a story as you went along and revising it to make the new discoveries fit. It didn't have to make sense or even be true, as long as both people were willing to make it up together. (253)
That wouldn't be fair, would it? To make you want something you can't have and then to stop you from having what I tricked you into wanting? (The Littlest Mermaid, Meredith Russo, 260)
Love is the opposite of thinking. (269)
Hank thinks I'm too suspicious of everyone. I'd rather be known as a judgmental bitch than a stupid one. (Just A Little Bite, Roselle Lim, 292)
"[You] cannot believe everything contained in books; sometimes they are only fiction, or what is called the black art." (The Nightingale, Hans Christian Andersen, 393) ( )
