I really enjoyed this collection, it was very fun and weird and it had quite a few standouts for me. Such a pretty face was my favourite out of all them. I love how all the stories deal with identity and loss of identity, misogyny, homophobia, love and sex and many other things. The writing and prose was pretty good in most of the stories and they were curated pretty well in my opinion. I enjoyed the most that it dealt with those themes in weird, horror based stories, it made it more enjoyable to read and pick apart those themes in a thought provoking way. Overall I’d recommend if you want a good short story collection that tackles those themes and queer identity.
