The Men Who Change the World by Christopher East: 2/5
All Together, Now by Jason Hough and Ramez Naam: 3/5
She'd Never Had a Name Before by J.R. Dawson: 2/5
The Ones Who Stay and Fight by N.K. Jemisin: 5/5
Story Kit by Kij Johnson: 3/5
Destinations of Joy by Alexander Weinstein: 2/5
Holiday by M. Rickert: 1/5 (Seriously, this should have had a content warning on it; I can't believe there wasn't)
Fortune's Final Hand by Adam-Troy Castro: 3/5
Average rating: 2.625, but I'm rounding down to a 2/5 just because that one story made me feel so fucking gross afterwards.

Recommended story: She'd Never Had a Name Before by J.R. Dawson
Science Fiction Stories
"The Men Who Change the World" by Christopher East
A man becomes a spy and infiltrates a mega-corporation for their secrets. Pretty good!
"All Together, Now" by Jason Hough and Ramez Naam
reprint - A soldier attempts to destroy a huge mech that is destroying Atlanta. It was OK
"She’d Never Had a Name Before" by J.R. Dawson
My favorite story of the month. A girl meets her sister that died from an alternate world. Excellent!
"The Ones Who Stay and Fight" by N.K. Jemisin
reprint - Jemisin channels Le Guin in this Omelas like story
Fantasy Stories
"Story Kit" by Kij Johnson
reprint - Kij continues to go over my head.
"Destinations of Joy" by Alexander Weinstein
A new continent is found in the Pacific Ocean. Meh.
"Holiday" by M. Rickert
A really disturbing story about a man doing research on the deaths of young girls. Definitely seemed more like a horror story to me.
"Fortune’s Final Hand" by Adam-Troy Castro
This casino allows you to trade your memories, gain other people's memories, all while gambling. I might of miss the nuances in this one.
