I rated each story out of 5 and the average came out at 3.5 but I liked the format and enjoy anthologies like this so I've bumped it up to 4

Unfortunately just could not get into this book. I think because there was so many smaller stories every few pages, I struggled to keep up with the main story
i enjoyed some of these & not so much the others .. and then considering it’s an anthology, a collection of short stories, i couldn’t really get invested in a lot of these. overall, it was something i got through pretty quickly, with little investment (especially enjoyed the hare & the hound though)

This was a collection of 12 short stories by 12 authors. I won't be going in depth for all authors because that's too much but it was very interesting to see the different approach to the 'Dark Academia' concept of these people. Every story was unique in it's own way though I didn't vibe as much with all of them as I did with others, which is fair, as it's 12 hecking stories xD The primary reason for getting this was that M.L. Rio has a story in here, which amongst others was one of my favourites? :) Generally fun to do, we read one story a day and that was very doable! Most of them are quite dark though, so if you're interested, keep in mind they will have triggers you need to look out for.
