4.25 stars. I think I've found a new favourite set of characters thanks to this collection of stories. The Strange Hikizuri Siblings were the best part of this collection. I genuinely felt discomfort and unease as I read through their stories. For me, the central story that the book was titled after fell short in comparison. Overall, I had a great experience and I'd recommend this collection.
