This short story collection just wasn't for me, I think. I liked the idea behind almost each story, but the execution left me lukewarm. The only story I found memorable was The Vampires of Mulberry Street by Aria M. Jones, because I liked the contrast between all the tranquil cooking/gardening and vampire slaying.

Read for the following October 2020 readathons:
- BooAThon: Vampire
- StrangeAThon: Gothic Elements
- #gothicreadathon: The Undead
- SpooksAndTea: Horror with a stunning cover
