Our Lady of the Quarry and The Well were among the standout stories for me in this collection. Overall it was a mix of 3 and 4 ⭐️ stories with the stronger ones being those that will stay with me and haunt my thoughts for a while. The representation of Argentinian culture was one of the strong points along with the psychological horrors brought to nightmarish life via mostly female protagonists.
Moderate: Self harm, Grief, and Child death
