Review:
I really, really enjoyed this collection.

It's always a bit difficult to review collections of stories, but overall, I thought most of these were really good. There were a few slightly weaker ones, but they were still worth reading.

I love the writing style in this and the use of magical realism. There were parts in here that were so beautifully written, I had to read them over again. Sometimes the stories are a little bizarre and some were disturbing and I loved that. There's also an eeriness to some of these tales that I very much enjoyed.

If you're into strange, twisted and slightly dark stories, this is an absolute must read.
