This was very meh, as is the curse of Anthologies I'd say: it's hard to have all around great works that fit within 50 pages. Olivie Blake and a few other authors made great novellas, fun with just enough character development to make you care and a simple enough world building to not make it too much of the story. However, I also got pretty bored with the other half of the stories, they didn't strike me as very memorable or anything. It was a pretty easy read with some fun stories, but that's pretty much it (which saddens me very much, I really wanted to love this book).
