I sometimes think I should write a book about this or that, and then I read this and think, "wow, I guess I really should have done that. Someone else really did."terihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05095349422849979251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605456781483914021.post-32518146860513358222011-01-14T10:12:23.131-06:002011-01-14T10:12:23.131-06:00I haven't read the original fairy tale, which ...I haven't read the original fairy tale, which I think I'd have to do to fully appreciate the adaptation. I do enjoy well-done adaptations, though, so perhaps I'll get to this pair at some point. The title and cover of My Mother She Killed Me, My Father He Ate Me are a little off-putting to me. Kind of...well, creepy!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11429588794754369453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605456781483914021.post-38104613390741552962011-01-14T09:49:52.225-06:002011-01-14T09:49:52.225-06:00Every time you highlight a story from this collect...Every time you highlight a story from this collection, I want to read the whole book, right away!

I read Tender Morsels by Margo Lanagan. I liked the basic theme and could even go with the bears, given the obvious symbolism, but the dwarf was a bit much for me! But I could see how the original fairy tale has great potential!rhapsodyinbookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07041412748239010264noreply@blogger.com
