i wasn't as floored by the stories as i expected to be, but they were still enjoyable to read, with a distinct whimsical fairytale feel to them. i'll definitely be picking up hopkinson again :)

(if i'm quite honest though, i think my favourite part of this book might've been the introduction - and i don't mean that in a bad way, it was just a really compelling introduction. if nalo hopkinson ever writes nonfiction i will be SO down)

These were such interesting stories that took me on so many whirlwind trips and explored so many fantastic ideas. The stories were all quite short and digestible.
