dark mysterious fast-paced

3.5

I don't usually click with short story collections because they tend to leave too much unexplored or don't develop the story well enough. Some of these felt like full stories and some were cut off way too soon and let me unsatisfied.
Overall an interesting and unsettling collection.

Heavy on the horror, I think this collection of short stories will stay with me. Just about every content warning applies, though.
