TBR & Tangents by Rachel

This was my first ever time reading a collection of short stories, and I fully consider it to be a success! I thought the length was perfect overall, as well as the lengths of the individual stories. All the stories were interesting, and unique in their own right and kept me on my toes through the entire read. I enjoyed the different cultures and mythologies, especially the Icelandic ones. It was such a welcome change from the usual horror plots and settings.

For the page length we got I was happily surprised to find great detail and no lack of uneasiness within the stories. They were all individual in nature but kept with the overarching themes of the collection. This is the ideal collection of stories to start off winter with.
