This was a very interesting read that has a story within a story format. These two men make a bet that his wife, Cherry, could not be seduced within one hundred nights. He has faith that she will be perfectly faithful because she has not even been with him! That's because Cherry's lover is actually her maid Hero. They are in love and Hero decides that she will tell the guy enough stories that he will be so interested in the stories that he would not be with her. It ends up working and he is loosing track of the days. It doesn't end quite how you think but it in that one hundred nights of story telling they end up causing a revolution and the downfall of a cult meant to keep women down. [The ending got me thinking for a while. So, in this book there was an element of fantasy...and like the moon saved them both. I hate the lesbians always die at the end troupe that is out there so I'm very glad they lived in the stars...but I kinda wanted there to be a separate stories are fantasy and can empower regular people and just reality being reality. Although, it is really cool if wow! The stories are true we can now worship our actual God and the lady that took care of us and not this Birdman guy. Yet, you could also see how the lovers turned into stars because they died. They're not shown again, but can live on forever in the stars...but also their story gets told to the society of stories women and in that way their story gets told on forever and therefore they live on through the story and maybe those stars are dedicated to them because the story tellers have a charm with the stories they tell to remind them...Anyway! Pretty cool..what do you guys think? (hide spoiler)]
The stories were amazing. They were about love and sisterhood and went really well the the charming illustrations. The font how ever, even though it matched the art style at times was hard to read. ~Ashley
