I didn’t stop giving hand jobs because I wasn’t good at it. I stopped giving hand jobs because I was the best at it.
Alright ... not the opening I expected after reading the first story. Fully support the artistic direction. Wild, as the youth say.

A Year and a Day in Old Theradane by Scott Lynch 5/5 Superb!
I really enjoyed this short. It had me laughing while invested in the immersion of discovery. Excellent prose. I really need to start reading his longer works.

Bent Twig by Joe R Lansdale 0/5
Maybe this short wasn't for me? Absolutely dreaded finishing it, and I don't have a single good thing to say about it.

The Inn of the Seven Blessings by Matthew Hughes 3/5
I really enjoyed the set up, but I lost a lot of desire to read on past the midpoint.

What Do You Do? by Gillian Flynn 3/5
Never have I ever been so drawn in by an introductory sentence. I didn't expect this type of story coming into this anthology, but it got me gigglin' quite a bit. I was captivated the whole way through, but didn't feel much satisfaction with the ending. Thus a 3.
On to the next!

Tough Times All Over - Joe Abercrombie 4/5
I feel like I should have read more of Abercrombie's books to fully appreciate this little novella, but it was very well written and Abercrombie always does a wonderful job captivating my imagination. I dearly hope to see more of Javre, Lioness of Hoskopp, when I return to his works -- her scenes gave me a good ol' giggle.
