The Curiosities: A Collection of Stories by Tessa Gratton, Brenna Yovanoff, Maggie Stiefvater

adventurous dark emotional mysterious medium-paced

3.0

I'm realizing that short stories are not my favorite. Most of the time I either can't get into it at all or want way more from it. That's not to say that these short stories weren't good though. I did overall enjoy them. I particularly loved Rain Maker by Maggie, Dumb Supper by Tessa, and Neighbors by Brenna. However, to me, the stories are not the most important part of this collection. These stories are mostly unedited and accompanied by thoughts about the writing process which are really interesting to see. If you're a writer or are just interested in the writing process, reading through the ways these three different authors approach stories and attempt to take new risks to improve their writing is really quite fascinating.
