I've actually read several of the stories more than once. The Lady of the House of Love is my favorite story in the collection, but there are many other really good ones. Someday I have to get around to reading more of her work.Carl V.http://www.blogger.com/profile/15948764216438379394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19933604.post-59096882933276265912010-08-16T21:25:34.988-05:002010-08-16T21:25:34.988-05:00Andi- i liked the two Beauty stories but didn'...Andi- i liked the two Beauty stories but didn't really get the last Wolf story. ah well.Melaniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13215448457283751470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19933604.post-12071492035007610122010-08-16T15:26:25.876-05:002010-08-16T15:26:25.876-05:00Yep, they were a little repetitive with multiple v...Yep, they were a little repetitive with multiple versions of the same stories, but then again, I think I remember liking all the versions (just thought it was lazy not to diversify a bit). Love her prose as well.
