Enthralled: Paranormal Diversions by Melissa Marr, Kelley Armstrong, Rachel Caine
3.0
Enthralled was one the better anthologies I've read. Like all short story collections there are the good, the bad and the blah stories, but Enthralled had more good than I was expecting.
Some of my favorite stories were: Automatic by Rachel Caine. This was an awesome addition the the Morganville series, that I really enjoyed. Gargouille by Mary E. Pearson was a beautiful story that I wished would've kept on going. The gargoyle mythology was fascinating. Let's Get This Undead Show on the Road by Sarah Rees Brennan was a hilarious story about a vampire in a boy band. Bridge by Jeri Smith-Ready was a bit melancholic, but written beautifully and kept me very interested in the story and makes me want to check out the series it goes with. The Third Kind by Jennifer Lynna Barnes was obviously good. I have never read anything I didn't like by her. Things About Love by Jackson Pearce surprised me by how much I liked it because I'm not usually a genie fan, but it was pretty funny and I enjoyed it.
All in all, this was a good collection of short stories which contained some of the best YA authors out there right now. I enjoyed stories by some of my favorite authors and found some new authors to check out.
