Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an eARC of this short story collection.
Firstly, I adored this collection, I know of only one of the authors, but I can see the quality of the rest easily here.
I enjoy the anonymity, it lends itself well to the whole premise of the book, sex of all forms, types, between different people, both negative, positive and other worldly. I rarely read a book featuring sex which is inclusive of the good, the bad, the ugly and the downright beautifully weird, but I’m thrilled I have found this here.
I think there was only one story, maybe two in this whole collection which I didn’t love. I’m rating it 4.5 stars as it’s truly one of the best collections I’ve ever read, however there is a lot of non-consensual sex in here which I feel has maybe been given too much of a prominent place.
