dark

4.0
I love short stories, and this was a really solid compilation.
The Hot Girl-3.5, sardonic and compelling
The Next Husband Game-3, not fleshed out as much as I'd like
The Reclamation- 4, sure, a bit like 9 Perfect Strangers but I could have easily read 200 more pages of this
Lemon Boy- 3.5, ended abruptly but otherwise good
Greensleeves- 4, unsettling and REALLY well done
Heat- 3, the pacing was off for me and some of the assertions (stretch marks = motherhood among others) made it surprising that this was written by a woman. The idea was great though.
A Spell for Disappearing- 4.25, I wanted more!!!
