Some stories and poems in this are fabulous, but a few are just terrible, and mostly at the beginning. But the second half was mostly great - I quite enjoyed most of this anthology.

Queer Little Nightmares was haunting and fascinating in equal measure. Poignant in its exploration of intersectionality, queerness, & sexuality through and with monsters, I implore you to read this if you have even a passing interest in horror
Graphic: Transphobia, Body horror, and Homophobia
Moderate: Blood, Police brutality, Sexual content, and Racism
Minor: Animal cruelty

Two short stories in here will stay with me, and one of them probably for a long, long time. However, the rest of the book was lacking in direction, theme or any form of narrative thread; it felt a little slapdash, rather than curated. It just wasn't for me, but I'm glad I read it for those two great (in my opinion) stories.
