The Answer You Are Looking For Is Yes by Olivie Blake
4.0
story one: stone’s throw - 3.5 stars
only olive blake can make such a short story feel so rich. only reason this isn’t rated higher is because the fae (in the traditional sense, not the watered down versions in fantasy romances) freak me out lol. okay not entirely but that may have contributed
story two: saints and liars - 4 stars
this was so cute. i will never not enjoy reading about witch families, and specially, the youngest witches of two witch families falling in love. it always hits.
story three: the golden age of monsters - 4.5 stars
the stories in this anthology really do just keep getting better because this was so good! such a fun premise and i mean, anything with greek mythology in it is an immediate yes from me.
story four: pars fortuna - 4 stars
such a cool premise, how does she think of these things?!?! unfortunately though, sam just wasn’t my favourite. i know people grow and all (and he did ofc), but him saying that he had never voted just turned me off immediately i’m sorry
story five: the immortality project - 3 stars
i liked the idea behind this one but the execution was a little confusing. i think this would have made more sense if some of the narration was more traditional rather than the main character’s documentation for her lawyer.
