Woohoo, I know what tale it is at last! I guessed right! I retain the Grimm Crown for life!
I had two candidates for what tale it was, and my 1st guess based on absolutely nothing but my gut feeling (who trusts a Hobbit's gut before breakfast anyway?) turned out to be the right one and not my 2nd guess.
The Grimm Crown is still mine, woohoo!

Well, that was one weird take on Rumple to close the anthology with, and I'm not sure what to make of that plot.
On the other hand, I finally met Katie's bro and was able to compare their styles. Will I comment on that in the review? Depends on what's for breakfast. :P
I will say, though, that Ben Hanna managed to do what only Mariella has: keep me guessing what blasted tale was being retold.

Well, it was bound to happen: a first bump in the road.
Funny how it happens, there's fairy tales I don't like but that get great retellings I like, and fairy tales I like but that get retellings I tend to dislike. I love Little Red Riding Hood, but not LRRH retellings & avoid them. This story reminds me of why.
Vampires/witches (? It's unclear). Wolf shapeshifters. No plot that follows either Perrault or Grimm.

I like how a certain someone I might name (it starts with M) writes travel-with-a-chum quests. It's not that clear who the Bad Cop and the Good Cop are in this duo, and that's a plus!
Another thing that's not clear is which fairy tale this story is retelling. I pride myself in knowing the Grimms, but even I can't tell what blasted tale this one is. Yes, that's a plus too.
