Things We Say in the Dark by Kirsty Logan
4.0
The best short story collection I've ever read - it makes horror very accessible. I deducted a star for the lack of trigger warnings which, in the case of this book I can kind of understand, but I also wish I had (Girls are Always Hungry When all the Men are Bite Sized felt very invasive and made me the wrong kind of uncomfortable and Watch the Wall, My Darling, While the Gentlemen Go By dealt with kidnapping and rape). This book does, however, feature many f/f relationships in throughout the short stories which I did really love.
Off the top of my head some trigger warnings (although this may not be all of them): rape, murder, death, invasive physical examinations, gore, emetophobia, abuse, kidnapping, insects (specifically, eating insects), human remains, pregnancy (not a trigger warning but a sensitive topic, so please tread carefully reading part two if it is for you).
