4.0

As with most anthologies, some of the stories I really enjoyed and some, less so. I think the only negative I truly have for this book is that I have never been there, never mind lived there. As much as I've read (fiction and non-fiction) about the area, I don't have the same connection with the place as I did with Boston Noir. That isn't the fault of the writers, it just is. It's staying in my permanent collection though. I've also been introduced to a couple of writers I wouldn't otherwise know. I'll be looking to read more of their work.
