deannasworld's review against another edition
3.0
It's been so long since I read this book that I can't remember much of it but I do know that the writing is good as I've read other books my this author before and enjoyed it.
The first story, The Marquis' New Clothes was a fun story and good.
The second one was what stumped me. I think I got partway through the story and I just could not tolerate what the hero was doing and it did not sit well with me. In my status update of my reading progress, I said "I'm partway through the second story in the book and I've not been able to continue. The actions of the hero, no matter how well intentioned, do not sit well with me. I can tell the whole thing is just about to go to pot." If I had read on things would have probably turned around fairly quickly since they were short-ish stories, but I just could not bring myself to keep going as I was so put off by the hero.
The last story, The Princess and the Diamonds, I did not read as I never got to it and I'm one of those OCD people who need to read things in order.
I am still going to give this book 3 stars because I enjoyed the first story and in general, it was all very well written. It would be unfair to score the book down just because of one story where I didn't agree with what the hero was doing.
