The Arabian Nights

I must admit this was a bit of a slog in the middle part. Many aspects of the stories are somewhat repetitive, and there's only so much heterosexual longing a person can take (there's one story where literally the only things that happen are: man and woman see each other and fall instantly in love, man and woman hang out together twice, man and woman die of love because they can't be together). It picks up toward the end though.
