These are fun small bites that are easy to gobble up. I enjoyed the assignment of fun, weird, and touching, with a sprinkling of gore and sex. And some wtf-I-think-I'm-too-tired-to-try-to-process-this-oops. Some stories are stronger than others, but for such short tales, some will stay with me forever.
Stories that stood out to me:
- The Wedding Story. Eerie and happy and sad
- Chivalry. Delightful.
- The Price. Good kitty.
- The Goldfish Pond and Other Stories. Feelings.
- Changes.
- We Can Get Them For You Wholesale. I loved the ridiculousness of this one.
- Mouse. Heart breaking and frustrating and real.
- When We Went To See The End Of The World. Yo wtf.
- Snow, Glass, Apples.
- Fifteen Painted Cards from a Vampire Tarot. As a tarot fan, no I'm not biased at all.
- Eaten. what in the flying fk
