pickBook 8 of 2024.
Solid subversion of fairytale tropes - a hard and ugly look at (high school) misogyny being instilled via toxic masculinity and wanting to “fit in”. The sidebar of the undercover cop-student relationship wasn‘t great…but it fit for the idea expressed. Despite being a short story, this was well fleshed out and didn‘t feel rushed. Quality YA fantasy horror.

pickThis one was sooooo good! A short little murder mystery; the ultimate “bros before hoes”. I really enjoyed it!
so-soThe 3rd short story I‘ve read from the faraway collection. Two detectives investigate the murder of 5 girls nicknamed “the princesses” at a high school.
I found the style of writing difficult to read and nearly bailed a few times.#fairytales #faraway #shortstories #amazonoriginals
pickThis is my favorite so far out of the faraway collection (ive got one more to go i think) i LOVE audiobooks that are performed kinda like old classic radio shows.
so-soI‘ve just...outgrown stories where violence against women is just a fun narrative device. 2 stars only because I enjoyed the epistolary format.
pickThis gets a pick because it's fast paced and just eviscerated every Disney prince ever. Like just ruins them all. Seriously a fun read if you think Prince Eric was trash and that the Beast is really the bad guy and Belle deserved better because they all deserve better.
pickThis is so messed up but so good! Toxic masculinity abounds in this high school, and murder right alongside it. There are so many things to talk about in this amazing sorry story.
pickWow. I‘ve really been enjoying the faraway collection as a whole, but this one takes the cake. Moments of heart-stopping, edge-of-your-seat suspense and the commentary on our society in the current climate post #MeToo. Brilliant storytelling. I‘ll definitely be checking out more from this author.
pick"It isn‘t about the “Princesses” in the slightest. It‘s the Princes who are playing games. It‘s always been about them."
Soman Chainani has penned a beautifully intricate and hard-hitting tale that leaves you ruminating long after it's finished. The Disney princes are the only characters retaining their fairy-tale names and the girls, the so-called princesses, possess random names, the only distinction afforded to them is based on their hotness?
pickFaraway, #3
Whoa, so far this was my favorite of the Faraway series! It was incredibly well developed for such a short story. Also I loved how creative the author was with using real fairy tale names of people and places in new and improved ways here.
Solid 5 stars
