A decent little read. How to Fillet Angels is the weakest story, but has good bones. The rest are stronger, with Belly Full of Hell leading.

A really strong opening with 'The Bone Mother' by Jon Steffens. A great little story about being isolated in the mountains, sick and scared. An incredible ending. My favourite of the lot.

'How To Fillet Angels' by Joanna Koch was ok, it rambled on a bit long and I'm not sure I entirely got it. But the imagery near the end was so, so good.

'Belly Full of Hell' by Justin Lutz was really good, a gross short horror about parasites, or something similar! Definitely something I'd like to see built on.

Finally, 'Shower Thoughts' by Dominick Cancilla was a great, quick little end to the book. A great little twist in the middle but not sure how I felt about the end.

A great little collection!
