What I enjoyed so very much about this book was that despite the stories being different they all had this centralized theme of gays and theys saying fuck the government and trying to survive in a seemingly post-apocalyptic world. I enjoyed the characters from each story immensely and I also enjoyed seeing the different ways people just try to make it from day to day. At first, I was confused about why some stories were entered (I'm looking at you random goblin killer story), but then when I got to the end and say that originally all the stories had been written for different publications and then combined it made more sense. The sad part is the stories I loved the most were some of the shortest ones while the ones I felt didn't really fit were longer. Regardless this was an excellent collection of stories that I enjoyed very much!
