5.0

This anthology, y'all. I thought I'd blow through this book, because I knew I'd love the stories. Instead, I took my time. I savored the stories, and honestly, some of them packed such a punch, I had to put the book down and let the stories settle in my brain and my heart. If you're looking for stories by women in horror that are beautiful, heartbreaking, gruesome, scary, enraging, and empowering, well, this is your book!
