The author Mitzi Szereto, in addition to writing In Sleeping Beauty's Bed: Erotic Fairy Tales, wrote other novels that include Wicked: Sexy Tales of Legendary Lovers, The Erotic Travel Tales, Getting Even: Revenge Stories, The New Black Lace Book of Women's Sexual Fantasies, and Dying For It. If In Sleeping Beauty's Bed entertains you then perhaps you will enjoy some of her other novels as well.

In Sleeping Beauty's Bed consists of 15 stories, each with a brief history of where they started and how they developed. I found the histories to be fascinating and the stories were short and easy to read. These stories include:

The book is well made. I've had it for over a year now and it still looks brand new. It's dimensions are similar to that of most novels so it doesn't stick out or get lost on a bookshelf. It is 316 pages long divided into 15 sections. The layout is very neat and orderly; giving a history of each story immediately prior to the rewritten story it pertains to. The order these stories are presented in doesn't really seem to matter. You can open the book up randomly and easy find the beginning of a story to read. Some people may be disappointed to learn that the cover is not as discrete as they would like. It depicts a scantly clad woman so this may deter some people from wanting to read this book in public.

Ultimately, this book is well made and easy to follow and understand.

I bought this book hoping that it would accomplish two things; to arouse and entertain me. Some of the stories were interesting and I do love a good fairy tale so it gets a silver medal there. It isn't my go to novel for a good time but I have reread some of the stories a few times. But for the second purpose it fell a bit short. For my favorite genre in erotic fiction this was disappointing. There were just too many euphemisms for my taste. Some people may prefer this mild and less intimidating style but I learned the hard way that it doesn't work for me.
