I think I'll abstain from a star rating on this one considering I've forgotten the stories in the first half

Pros:
- there are some compelling stories in here, which were really creative and unusual.
- I especially liked Reap by Sami Shah (very gripping), The Jinn Hunter's Apprentice by E J Swift (the spaceship element was rly cool), Message in a bottle by K J Parker (premise was great, inconclusive end) and Bring Your Own Spoon by  Saad Z Hossain (enjoyed the post apocalyptic vibes and the hopeful note).
- probably others from the start I liked but I forget, since this book was a year in reading (whattttt)

cons:
- i think maybe the format isnt for me, or not stories this short. i never wanted to carry on reading, and invest in a new story all over again. they were over too soon for me to have any attachment, and jumping straight from one story to another didnt appeal.
- some stories were very misogynistic and grim and i just didnt enjoy them

overall, a mix of great and mediocre stories, also my problem because I didnt gel with short stories format.
