5.0

Fright Into Flight was such a great collection. These are all stories specifically by women related to flight in some way. I was introduced to quite a few authors I hadn't read before, and I can't wait to check out more of their work.

With the exception of one, I absolutely loved every story in here. The one story I didn't care for definitely wasn't bad; I just didn't love it. So many of them were 5⭐, though. My top favorites were The Floating Girls: A Documentary by Damien Angelica Walters, I Did It for the Art by Izzy Lee, Cargo by Desirina Boskovich, and And Then She Was Bad by Nadia Bulkin. It was my first time reading all 4 of those authors.

My only issue is that I think these stories deserve a better cover. It may just be me personally, but I don't know of I would pick this book up in a store based off of the cover. These stories are spooky and beautiful, and the cover just doesn't give me that vibe.

A common thread that I noticed in many of the stories was loneliness. I think that it's pretty easy to connect with the collection as a whole, and to get wrapped up in these women's stories. These stories are creative and unique, and I think there's something for all horror readers in here. It's a fantastic variety. Thank you so much to Word Horde for sending this to me. Fright Into Flight will be out on 9/4!
