5.0

Such a wonderful collection, with short stories from a mix of established and new (to me) writers. Jack Vening and Liz Flux manage add dashes of humour, much needed amidst a lot of other pretty grim stories. Madeleine Watts, Mirandi Riwoe and Laura McPhee-Browne have all written books I really liked, and their stories here lived up to my expectations. Laura Stortenbeker is going to write an absolutely astonishing book one day. Anyway - there's something for everyone here - kudos to Kill Your Darlings for putting it together.
