The Glamour of the Snow
A deliciously creepy vintage tale. Algeron builds suspense like no other. It’s not as good as the Willows but it comes close. And it makes me long for those beautiful, soft billows of snow dunes.

Book 5 was Sunflowers by Bryan Washington, a gay native american soldier deployed in Afghanistan. I'm not sure I really understood this story

Story 4 was Counseling by Lisa Bird-Wilson. I basically just want the protagonist and her counsellor to be a couple and be happy. After only 10 pages - another great short story!

Book 3 was Endless City by Zachary Mason. I've not read the Odyssey or the Illiad in at least 10 yeafrs so I was struggling to remember the scene that this draws from. Mason describes the story, here:https://www.hingstonandolsen.com/2018... as a 'mobius strip of a narrative', which is cool, but I'm just not a fan of the greek tales.

Slower by Sara Levine
Good heavens that was emotional. What a killer.

I'm now going to try finishing these off in February, one per day. Today I have to catch up story 1 and 2.
Story 1 was Sea Monster by Seth Fried. Really liked the concept of this, short and sweet.
