Milkman #1 & #2
I’m gonna lose it

Uncle Otto’s Truck. 3/5
He’s able to make an inanimate object scary.

Survivor Type: 3/5
Disturbing.
God the experience of reading this book has gone exponentially downhill the more I read.

Nona: 4/5
Good read good writing weird story
For Owen: 0/5

Beachworld: 3/5
The Reaper’s Image: 2/5
Beachworld reminds me of Love, Death, & Robots
The Reaper’s Image reminds me of the mirror Feyre had to look into in ACOWAR

The Man Who Would Not Shake Hands: 3/5.
Some of the weaker short stories here really just feel like: “What if this man accidentally killed people when he touched them, that’s why he couldn’t shake their hand?”. The Raft and the Word Processor of the Gods feel more fleshed out because the characters are more established.

Word Processor of the Gods: 4/5.
Again like the concept, but again unlikable character. Everyone has to be demeaning towards women?

The Raft: 4/5
Great concept. So terrifying, unsettling

Paranoid: A Chant. 1/5
Really not enjoying some of these
