Stephen is okay - I see what the author was going for, but this one didn't land with me.

Scout's Honor - this setup was so good it didn't need that ending. I would have read a whole novel with this premise.

The Guardian - another favourite of this collection that's got me diving into colonial history

Cinderella Auction - succeeds at being a Stephen King story, as intended.

Brick - an upsetting view of mental health issues. I wish it had a better ending.

The Sample Table - a cozy fantasy in the middle of this collection?

Head trauma and a big problem - a writing exercise, I agree with the author

Baby doll - Heartbreaking and horrifying all at once. Is this my future? No, I don't have children.

Kokopelli -- I really liked the first half of this story.
