slxtty_academia's review against another edition
1.5
All the subtlety of a kick to the teeth, just A Long String Of The Grossest Things the author could think of. Lacks any qualities to make the contents actually disturbing. The voice is very homogeneous across all the stories, which made little sense to me since humans, chimps, a meerkat and a beetle should be wildly different narrators. I somewhat liked the final story, but even that just made me roll my eyes at the ending.
And what's with the authors thing for plucking out eyeballs??
It's been a Rollercoaster for me and LaRocca, I hated Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last spoke, but LOVED You've Lost A Lot Of Blood, and now strongly disliked this collection. I'll give them one last shot with Everything The Darkness Eats next year and if I don't like that one it's just not meant to be.
