was deeply infatuated with this collection of stories!! i love horror books, especially queer horror and i found myself utterly horrified and at the same time comforted by most of these stories. such a great selection of different worlds and queer perspectives! my fav stories were (in no particular order): the infinite being, the same thing that happened to sam, chironoplasty and the roots they pull. the roots they pull had such a perfect depiction of sexual assault/molestation and how this effects not just anyone but queer afab people especially. it also expands on how you can find safe spaces to express your love/sexuality with the right person and how you can grow and blossom and find peace in that growth and acceptance in such a beautiful way. big thank you to all of these writers, this collection was an amazing read :)
