Christine Johnson grew up in, moved away from, and finally came home to Indianapolis, Indiana. While she was in the “away” part of that adventure, she lived in Chicago, Illinois, where she attended DePaul University and majored in Political Science. She now lives in an old house in an old neighborhood with her kids and way too many books. Find her on the web at http://www.christinejohnsonbooks.com/ and on Twitter @cjohnsonbooks.
Grim is a collection of 17 short stories based off fairy tales collected by Wilhelm and Jacob Grimm. I think that overall this book was good at introducing me to new authors and some lesser known fairy tales. I think that this book is a good book to let you try out all these authors before actually committing and buy one of their full novels.
