Riding the red ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Moody, which I love, but a little too abstract. Love the idea, though.
Money tree ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Liked it, but it didn't seem like a horror story to me.
Something to hitch meat to ⭐⭐⭐
Very Mage: the Ascension-like.
Snake ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Extremely uncomfortable for read, even though you know there will be a payoff.
Under Glass ⭐⭐
I tried hard (and several times), but I just didn't get that one.
The Glass Bottle Trick ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Uncomfortable in a good way.
Slow Cold Chick ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Absolutely loved it.
Fisherman & The Woman Hands on My Belly Now... ⭐⭐⭐
Again, the concept is cool, I just find most sex scenes boring. That's not the author's fault, I think for somebody who enjoys sex scenes, this would be one of the better ones. So please read it and make up your own mind.
Tan-Tan and Dry Bone ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Very nice myth/fairytale.
Greedy Choke Puppy ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Love a good creepy vampire story!
A Habit of Waste ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This was super intriguing.
And the Lillies-Them A-Blow ⭐⭐⭐
Whose Upward Flight I Love ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Ganger (Ball Lightning) ⭐⭐⭐
I get it, and I like the idea, but it was too much porn for me.
Precious ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Loved it.
So, this was a mixed bag for me, but overall a great read. Even if I gave several stories 3 stars, there wasn't one that wasn't worth reading for me, and I got something out of all of them.
I like how most of the stories have an ambiguous ending.
Highly recommend reading this collection!
