My usual issue with short stories: some of them are a bit too short, or end too abruptly, or have pacing issues. Others, though, were very interesting!

My favourites:
- Reckless Eyeballing (N.K. Jemisin) was just a brilliant idea and a very strong start to the book.
- Eye & Tooth (Rebecca Rianhorse) deserves to be a full TV show with 20-episode long seasons or something. I loved the concept and the execution.
- The Rider (Tananarive Due) - very creepy and the perfect blend of "real" and supernatural horror.
- Dark Home (Nnedi Okorafor) - absolutely captivating.
- The Most Strongest Obeah Woman of the World (Nalo Hopkinson) - I loved everything about this, great body horror.
- A Bird Sings by the Etching Tree (Nicole D. Sconiers) - the whole idea and vibe was really cool
- Hide & Seek (P. Djèlí Clark) - Chilling from the start, great ambience throughout, even having understood early what was going on did not make this any less brilliant.
