Such a good collection!

I would really like more - a lot of the stories would be amazing as novels and novellas, and there were so many I enjoyed but felt I really wanted more out of.

Not all the stories gripped me - as with most anthologies, even by the same author, I don’t always like all of them or some stand out to me more than others. I really did love the overall tone of the collection. I think I wasn’t in the right headspace for a couple with drug addiction themes, and that coloured my perception of the stories when I read them.

Overall, I really liked it.

She did it again. I had told myself that THIS time I was going to take it slow. Jokes on me

I have a bit of a love/ hate relationship with anthologies, but this is the first anthology that I've loved all the way through.

I think this is a novel for anyone who loves science fiction or just wants a more diverse reading history.

Storytelling at it's best. This left a little stressed because I don't remember the how the "Tselane & Ledimo" tshomo starts or ends
