All Things Weird & Strange is a quick read and a collection of 6 short stories from 6 different authors. These stories all exhibit supernatural occurrences, some in modern, others in futuristic settings, and we mostly follow younger characters.
I enjoyed the first five stories, whereas the last one had a very imaginative idea, but I felt missed the mark with its execution. There was also one story (Sun Burn) with some formatting issues in the ebook version I read, but regardless, this book was a fun read.
My favorite story was It’s a Twin Thing, by Shelly X. Leonn. It’s about two siblings, and it read as a suspenseful introduction or a badass teaser for a character-driven, action story with superpowers! The other stories were also nice, but this one really left me wanting more...
Anyway, as the title suggests, the accent of this book is on the weird and the strange element, and I felt that all stories successfully maintained that vibe. There were some very interesting concepts in this collection and I had a good time!

Really great stories
I enjoyed this anthology so much! The stories are so vivid and imaginative that I couldn’t put it down. My favorite story was the first one, Swap by Michael Hilton. I thought he characterized the teen girl perfectly and made his point about social media come across loud and clear.

It wasn't entirely what I had expected. Instead the fantastical elements were more mundane in some way, even though they weren't, at the same time. It's a short read, and it's some good stories in there, so I definitely recommend it.

Enjoyable Bite-Sized Stories
Great little read for anyone who loves sci-fi! Short but fun stories that showcase the speculative. My favorite was Swap.

Inspiring
The stories in this anthology were enjoyable. I found them clever and inspiring. Each of the protagonists were well rounded and the stories were well-written.
