A few diamonds in the rough! Yes some of these stories did take me out to the point I struggled to finish but those few that I adored were well worth it. If you love folk horror short stories I'd recommend this, but only if. It is not for everyone.

I couldn't really get into this book: I persevered for nearly half of it then realised I hadn't particularly enjoyed the vast majority of the stories. There are some good ones here and there, but I felt a lot of them were too short for me to get fully engaged in. Additionally, the 'horror' aspect wasn't always particularly prevalent. Some stories relied not on anything unsettling or spooky, but instead outbursts of gore, which generally weren't well written and detracted from any horror present.
