3.0

I enjoyed this collection, however it was a bit more hit and miss for my personal tastes than the previous one in the same series. Some stories I really enjoyed and then others didn't resonate with me.

The highlights were:

'Scissors or Claws, and Holes' by Yusaku Kitano
'Girl, I Love You' by Nadia Bulkin
'From the Nothing, With Love' by Project Itoh
'Those Who Hunt Monster Hunters' by Tim Pratt
'The Street of Fruiting Bodies' by Sayuri Ueda
'Chiyoko' by Miyuki Miyabe
