Every story in this anthology was wildly different but equally horrifying.

All hail the view flesh! One of the best and most moving horror anthologies I've ever read.
I don't find those "In story 1 this happens, in story 2..." reviews super helpful, so what I'll say is that these stories are extreme, smart, and not what I was expecting. If you're hoping for camp "monster under your movie seat" like The Tingler, that's not what this is. These stories deal with forced detransition, bodies and stories sewn together with film, bad science for arguably good reasons, and so, so much sadness and loss.
Every story is excellent, and the whole is even greater than the sum of its parts. Highly recommended, and please do check out the helpful content warnings at the back because this is one of the most brutal books I've come across.
