This book is violently and insanely good. Each story gripped me more than the last. I have not been so reflective as I have been while reading this book. Really really great.

Absolutely loved the first story (The Husband's Stitch) and really liked the second (Inventory),but things went downhill from there. Boring and bizarre. There were a couple stories that I had no idea what the hell was going on (Mothers comes to mind) and others where I just didn't care (Especially Heinous). Not one I'd recommend.
