kayceeisbookish's review against another edition

dark emotional mysterious sad tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.25

A compelling and insightful anthology. It left me often with feelings of unease (in a good way that you want in horror style books) and a unique version of various fears that these authors have developed.
