A review by zoe_marlett
Dangerous Women by Gardner Dozois, George R.R. Martin

challenging dark slow-paced

2.0

I would personally recommend not reading this. There’s a lot of weird, disturbing things and very few authors understood the assignment, as many of the stories were about men, only mentioning the so called ‘dangerous woman’ a few times.  TRIGGER WARNING FOR NECROPHILLIA in ‘I know how to pick ‘em’ or whatever it’s called. I’ve blocked it from my memory and I wanted to tear out that story and burn it. It was horrible. Also, women written by certain men are some of the most unrealistic and annoying characters. Some guys write women like they’ve never had a good conversation with one and it shows. There were a few good stories, including Brandon Sanderson’s, Lev Grossmans, and whoever wrote the first story in the booo. There were a couple good ones, but overall, just no. Not worth the time and wrist pain from holding this giant book. Not it, for me personally.
