review 1: Unfortunately, like with many anthologies, I had to wade through a bunch of crappy short stories before I reached the good stuff. Pretty much every story that was not written by a major author like the ones listed on the front of the book was a bust. The ones that were the wors...

review 1: I was actually looking forward to The Springsweet the sequel of The Vespertine. However I did not enjoy it as much. It is probably because the backdrop of the story is not as appealing and lush as the first book. The story is mediocre. There wasn't much suspense or excitement unl...
