*I'm not going to give you the 'what this book is about' blurb - you can read that elsewhere.
1. This is a collection of short stories all written by the same author (Ryan Harding, clearly) and each has a small common thread. They're not all the same, and some are quick, as in, if you don't read carefully enough, you may miss it. The connections are all there though, trust me. Because Ryan is freaking great and so good at what he does.
2. While I enjoy the gory perversion of many of these stories, especially Greg and Vons escapades, I really loved the twists and turns of 'Sharing Needles' and 'Emissary'. Oh! and 'Development'. They have a similar flow/feel to them, but there's just something dark and twisted about them in a way I can't shake. A hidden sinister that creeps me out.
3. Greg and Von are such bumbling idiots. They're a darker, more depraved, version of Lloyd and Harry from Dumb and Dumber and it's disturbingly hilarious. You laugh, but then feel bad for doing so because such terrible things are happening. Oh, who am I kidding? If you choose to read this, you're not feeling bad, because that's just how we roll! :)
