This story collection features short stories and poems all with LGBTQ characters and monsters. This was a unique collection but not every story or poem was interesting in my opinion. A few good stories here but be prepared to sift through as most are ok at best.

Like any anthology, some stories / poems were more enjoyable than others, but overall it was a fun read.

This was not my favorite book, and some of the stories were more weird then horror for me. But I did love how many diverse creators helped create this work.
