Rags and scraps. There is no gospel in Hell.
A gorgeous collection of short stories which were easy to fall in love with and get lost in. Some of them stuck to me more than others, but the book as a whole kept me engaged no matter which story I read.
Graphic: Terminal illness
Minor: Child abuse and Rape

3.0
All The Names for God was my favourite out of all of the stories here. Manus lost me a little with the dystopian fiction. There was a lot of genres tackled (with mermaids too) but overall it kept me interested and felt like a mixed bag of many genres in one book.
Moderate: Rape, Sexual assault, and Kidnapping
