A review by wall0w
Body Shocks by Ellen Datlow

dark mysterious tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix

3.0

Standouts for me were "The Truth That Lies Under Skin and Meat" by Cassandra Khaw, "Natural Skin" by Alyssa Wong, "The Look" by Christopher Fowler, and "Spores" by Seanan McGuire.
