I thought it was an okay book. Some of the stories I really enjoyed and some of them not so much. Some of my favorites were “and they don’t kiss at the end,” “willows,” and “every shade of red.” “Willows” was so good I really liked the concept and I wish it was its own book!
Graphic: Adult/minor relationship and Homophobia
Moderate: Deadnaming

Cozy, thats the word I wanna use. I love books that make me feel loved. And the authors really love you through this book. I loved the different setting and different ways the authors went about telling the story. Im for sure reading the other books from this collection

After I finished reading every single one of the short stories, I gave it a rating. By the end of the book, I decided to rate it by average ratings. It ended up being exactly 3.
I don't think I'll read short stories again, I don't think it's my vibe. I get tired and always want more, which I think is unfair to ask from short stories.
Here are some honourable mentions:
- La Roja
- Molly's Lips
- Every Shade of Red
- The Girl with the Blue Lantern
- The Inferno & the Butterfly
Some were so boring I almost couldn't finish, but it was an okay experience overall!
