Echoes: The Saga Anthology of Ghost Stories by Ellen Datlow, Dale Bailey
4.0
Overall, a really good collection.
Ice Cold Lemonade 25c Haunted House Tour: 1 Per Person by Paul Tremblay - was ok. The story was mostly good, but I didn't like the ending much.
Linger Longer by Vincent J. Masterson was interesting and good.
Whimper Beg by Lee Thomas didn't go where I thought it was going to go. It was good.
The July Girls by Alison Littlewood was interesting. I didn't think it would go like that.
About the O'Dells by Pat Cadigan was wonderful and spooky.
A Hinterlands Haunting by Richard Kadrey was ok? It had bad positioning.
The Number of Things You Remember by M.L. Siemienowicz was ok? I didn't like it much.
Must Be This Tall to Ride by Seanan McGuire was wonderful.
The Surviving Child by Joyce Carol Oates was good. I didn't think it was going to go that way.
The Medium's End by Ford Madox Ford was lovely.
A Shade of Dusk by Indrapramit Das was good and kind of confusing.
Icarus Rising by Richard Bowes was odd. It was not what I expected.
The Puppet Motel by Gemma Files was wonderful, very good in a cosmic horror sense. I loved it, but I really like her stuff.
Air Valve Semilunar Astern by Nick Mamatas was weird. I didn't have much of a clue what was going on, even after I finished.
The Unwrapping by Terry Dowling was interesting.
The Upper Berth by F. Marion Crawford is an oldy but goody.
A Burning Sword For Her Cradle by Aliette de Bodard was very interesting.
Precipice by Dale Bailey was good. I didn't quite get the ending.
The Shooter by M. Rickert was pretty horrifying.
The Tree of Self-Knowledge by Stephen Graham Jones was interesting and then very nasty.
The Other Woman by Alice Hoffman was good.
The Loneliness of Not Being Haunted by Bracken MacLeod was confusing at first, but good.
Mee-Ow by Garth Nix was pretty good.
Jasper Dodd's Handbook of Spirits and Manifestations by Nathan Ballingrud was painful and good.
His Haunting by Brian Evenson was good.
The Jeweled Wren by Jeffrey Ford was weird. I wasn't sure if I got it.
The Air, the Ocean, the Earth, the Deep by Siobhan Carroll was interesting.
The Ghost Sequences by A.C. Wise was lovely and weird.
Deep, Fast, Green by Carole Johnstone was good.
Natalya, Queen of the Hungry Dogs by John Langan was fantastic.
