Make Your Own Way - 3. About a girl who doesn’t want to leave town because of her horse. Didn’t like the ending - seemed easy and lazy. Did appreciate how Maryellen cared for her horse and wanted to take care of it

3. Kovach’s Last Case. - Michael Kortya. Horrible ending I didn’t get. Was going to at least give it a 4 until the end. Bodies and blood in bottle all good ideas - contamination though??? pretty well executed, until the end

Till Human Voices Wake Us We Drown - 2. Unnecessary and weird sexualness. Lots of weird side stories/tangents that don’t go anywhere or come back. Not canon and seems unrelated to the stand. Abrupt and unfulfilled ending that could have been much better. Interesting idea however and interesting mermaid. Had potential to be a lot better

African Painted Dogs - 3. Fine. Interesting that it was told from the perspective of animals in a zoo. Sad and depressing though and not the best ending

La Mala Hora - 3. Story could have been longer. Not much happens. Was invested and rooting for the characters

Moving Day - 3. Has Larry in it which is the highlight. Nothing really happens. Boy whose family died and mostly talking about their back stories. Larry shows up, the girl dies, he takes off. Nothing really happens

Grace - 4. Really enjoyed this one, probably favorite but why the rip off ending... and by someone who worked on an Alien book...

Wrong Place Wrong Time - 4. References to The Stand thrown in and mostly unrelated to story but enjoyed. mostly about horror movies and becoming the killer with catharsis
