Not perfect, but definitely good.

I was wavering between 3 and 4 stars but ended up going high based on my love for faeries, queerness, and short stories. On a technical level, the formatting of this book on Kindle was kind of weird, likely due to its age, since I don't think it was originally intended as an ebook. There was a lot of variation in the stories included, in tone, setting, and interpretation of what "faerie" means, and a nice balance between cute queer romance and fae mystery and creepiness, even if one of two stories inevitably didn't grab me as much as the others.

Favourite stories: "A Bird of Ice", "From Asphalt to Emeralds and Moonlight", "The Coat of Stars", "Year of the Fox".

There's a huge variety in quality among these stories. I recommend the stories by Ruby deBrazier, Sarah Monette, Holly Black, Christopher Barzak, Delia Sherman, Sean Meriwether, Melissa Scott, and Joshua Lewis.
