Strange Weather: Four Short Novels by Joe Hill

4.0

Joe Hill’s Strange Weather is a collection of four short novels, each of which I’ve given short reviews of in my reading updates. Overall, I enjoyed this collection and found the stories to be imaginative, fantastical, and focused. However, I did find there to a lot of on-the-nose and heavy-handed language that undermined the themes outlined in the novels. If you’re looking for truly terrifying tales revolving around weather, you probably will want to skip this one. If you’re looking for intriguing character studies that use the environment as extended metaphor, you will greatly appreciate Strange Weather. My particular favorite was Rain!
