Such a consistently astonishing, awe-ful, creepy collection of short stories.
I adored this, and you will too, if unsettling stories centred on (a lot of the time Sapphic) women are your kind of thing. My favourite stories from the set were 'Half Sick of Shadows', 'Good Good Good, Nice Nice Nice', and 'Birds Fell From the Sky and Each One Spoke in Your Voice'. But honestly, there really wasn't a bad story included and the majority I rated 4 or 5 stars individually.
Kirsty Logan is an amazing writer and I think this is my favourite of hers yet.
