3.0

Like with many compilations, some were absolutely wonderful and some I could barely get through. And that’s why it took me 5 months to finish it. I don’t even feel equipped to review this one because nothing really stuck with me. The stories that I disliked really over voiced the ones I did. As far as anthologies go, this was probably one of my least favorites which I know probably makes me the outlier, because these won so many awards 🤷🏼‍♀️
