Based on for my personal enjoyment and rating of these stories, I hated it. 

This book is filled with incomplete stories and trauma porn (specifically of women and children ). I guess if you want a really bad time, go ahead and read it.

Compared to the horror of Tender is the Flesh, this is tame. The stories are grotesque yes, but some are just plain weird. The second-person narration though? Slay.

The first few stories in this book were so good--creepy and unsettling and just the right amount of wild to put you off-kilter. But I honestly felt like the further into the book I went, the less compelling and less well-written the stories became. A bummer because it started off so well!

Some of Bazterrica’s stories were interesting reads, but some were (to me) way over written. Personally, I don’t enjoy purple prose at all. 

All in all, the stories didn’t really do anything too mind blowing. Enjoyed reading it, probably won’t read again.

A very different story collection here. I expected them to come together somehow, but they were all very separate. Still enjoyable!
