This is the perfect book to keep on the side for when you need a short story, it’s full of weird and unexpected tales.

It’s definitely going to be high on my list of recommended titles, it’s so difficult to find a good collection.

Honestly, the style got boring after the first few stories - maybe I shouldn't have read it in one piece. Nevertheless, I think the stories deserve a better way to be told, they are very creative.

This was a fun short story collection. There were some really amazing and thought-provoking stories especially in the beginning. I particularly liked The Summoning and Nature Morte, also Only Corpses Stay. I might revisit them.
I loved how queer it was

Favoriter: such a pretty face, the summoning, What would you give for a treat like me och The Carrier.

i really hope the author does more books like this because i never wanted the book to end, i love everything about it more sapphic horror
