Close to Midnight by Mark Morris

challenging dark mysterious tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.5

Perhaps not quite as strong overall as the earlier anthologies, this is still a solid collection of new stories, with some great authors included. There was one story I couldn't finish reading. I could see what was going to happen and couldn't bear it. I skipped through enough to know, yep, I can't do that one.
