*Trigger warning for suicide in "Factory"


While I did enjoy reading all of the stories, my favorites were definitely "Aunt Charlotte and the NGA Portraits" and "Factory". I loved how "Aunt Charlotte and the NGA Portraits" had a story inside the story, it made for an interesting read, I also felt like I was going on an adventure and I loved that. "Factory" was on the more darker side and definitely more morbid, it was actually kind of sad.

Tight stories describing the intersections of high and low -- regular people with nightmares, bakers with kings, etc. Each one stands alone.

A cute collection of kid stories. I'll admit I only checked it out because I'm so desperate for another Queen's Thief book that I'll take anything written by MWT, but it was still fun to read.
