I really enjoyed this collection of short stories! If you're into the weird genre(s), this collection offers a fresh take on things both abnormal and familiar.
My favorites were "Beside Me Singing in the Wilderness" (I was HOOKED after this one!), "A Discreet Music" (didn't know what to expect from the title, but I was oddly and pleasantly surprised!), and "Bookends" (this was a great ending for this collection- sometimes I find authors put their not-so-best pieces at the back of the book).
Highly recommend this if you were on the fence!
