"Castaing's style is original, cool and sophisticated. She was one of a kind. The book is rich with ideas for home decoration, color stories and a regal, bohemian sensibility."

Normally I like Mythology related stories but this one was just Meh for me. I thought I’d like it more with the Egyptian Mythology and everything but I didn’t

Unimpressed
I was very unimpressed by this book. Initially when I saw the concept for the book, I was excited to read it because I thought it'd be similar to Let it Snow. I am a big fan of collab books that have multiple authors, but after reading this book I believe that maybe 21 authors is too many. I like Let it Snow because all of the stories connected. I was hoping that this book would do the same. I ended up only like a select few stories from this book (Your Big Night, Three Fates, The Question: A Play in One Act, and The Great American Morp). I honestly got quite bored with the book after the first couple of stories and I practically had to force myself to finish the book. I also skipped quite a few stories and only read the last one because I am a huge fan of John Green. Overall, I was tremendously disappointed with this book.
