Oddbody by Rose Keating

fast-paced

4.0

This was a pretty solid set of short stories. I found it to be quite accessible in its metaphors, but not to the point that it felt overexplained. Unfortunately, the two stories that resonated with me least were the final two stories, so I was left with a bit to think about while rating this as those two stories were obviously most recent in my head. I think that 4 stars is a fair rating, though! I really enjoyed the very first story, Oddbody, and thought it set me up with some solid expectations for the rest of the book. I enjoy body horror and just general oddities in my books, so this one was certainly a worthwhile read for me.

Thank you to Rose Keating and Simon & Schuster for sending me a physical ARC as a giveaway prize! I am happy that I was able to read this one!
