This was definitely better than the first in the collection, but still mid. I’m only reading this for Grady. Maybe I’m not into short stories.

A little too opaque to be fully satisfying. I liked the workplace setting and the premise of Jennifer's disturbing premonitions, plus the writing is pretty solid. However, the story abruptly ends with numerous questions left unanswered; it would have been nice to have more time to marinate within this environment and get the full gist of what was really happening.

Really enjoyed the writing in this and looking forward to reading more of Stephen Graham Jones’s work.
It’s very much giving Final Destination which I’m here for as it’s one of my favourite franchises. I could have definitely read more of this, I’d love a longer version.

While I mostly liked this it was disjointed in a slightly bothersome way. I was trying to to figure out what was causing Jennifer's visions during the meeting in the titular Indigo Room. Was she going crazy, being possessed by ancient alien gods, was Gracie just trying to feck with her and put something in her coffee?
When things transpired that related to the visions during the meetimg it made more sense.Although I was wondering if my ancient alien god theory was correct.
Ok story but not SGJ's best.
