Her Body and Other Parties by Carmen Maria Machado
4.0

I feel like the word tour de force gets thrown around a lot when it comes to this book. Turns out its for good reason. Every story in this book was spectacular. Granted, I still hated the CSI because it was so not to my taste, but I could tell that Machado was still doing something brilliant even though I didn't like it.
The rest of them. The Husband Stitch was genius, Eight Small Bites made me want to cry, they all were just such good examples of...not horror, but the horrifying.
