Reading Notes: Arabian Nights, Part A

This week, I read Arabian Nights. First off, Scheherazade is one of the most clever and creative characters. I would not be able to tell that many stories in succession, let alone make them interesting. I was very surprised that the genie let him go, especially for an entire year! I feel like this is unlikely. I also feel like an alternative title could be "Story-ception". I don't know that my version will have characters with this much patience. They're all too trusting! I enjoyed the first part, but in all honesty, it was a little too confusing for me.I wish it would be one long story instead of a lot of little ones. It's slightly hard to follow and keep track of who's telling which story. I look forward to reading the rest, though, and finding out how it ends.
