Just Finished: Magritte's Secret Agent

Right. So was this good? Yes. Do I know where the Secret Agent came into play? No. I'm not even sure who Magritte is.

had an interesting story though. Got a little graphic there for a moment but yeah... other wise it was okay

Just Finished: Urchins, While Swimming

This was hauntingly beautiful. New fav, this one. It was done so well, and while it was bittersweet, it was perfect. Would 100% read this again

Just finished: Forever, Miss Tapekwa County

This one was good. It was dark, you weren't entirely sure what was happening and when it did happen... ooohhh boy. I felt bad for her, I don't think she realized what exactly it was that she did.

Just Finished: The Corridors of the Sea

This one was weird.

I liked it.

I wish the hero hadn't died, cause i kinda liked him. There were a lot of parts that were dry and a bit boring but once it picked up it was great!

Just finished: Letter to a Body on the Cusp of Drowning

This one had a lot of little stories in it. It got a bit confusing with the pronouns after a while, but i think that was because Kit was rather confused himself.

I did enjoy it though. All the different tales, Kit's anguish and confusion. Ambiguous ending, but good nonetheless

Just Finished: A Good Husband

Ohhhh, I liked this one a lot. Maybe not my ultimate favourite but I enjoyed this one.

The writing was quite poetic, and I liked how this one ended, it had a wonderful ending! Very very happy that Kitty got a happy ending at the end, and the right person died.

Just finished: The Nebraskan and the Nereid

I have mixed feeling about this one.

On the one hand i was rather interested in what was going on, but on the other hand i did not like the Nebraskan, and I'm pretty pissed off that his Nereid died in the end. I mean... why did that have to happen?

I know not all stories need to have a happy ending, but come on.

Just Finished: Rusalka

Wooo, this one was good. Haunting and beautiful and while I didn't quite like the end, I got it! It needed to happen

Just Finished: The Mermaids Singing Each to Each

This one was hard to read. The plot I mean. It was rough. Everything about this short story was rough.

i wanted more mermaids and less... whatever it was I just read

Just Finished: Flotsam

Ohhh. I liked this one a lot. I hesitate to say new favourite, only because the ending pissed me off. But it was beautifully written. I thoroughly enjoyed all 5 minutes it took me to read this one
