Just got approved on #NetGalley for the upcoming Adrian Tchaikovsky collection from Subterranean Press!
The plotline itself was well thought out, with the mixing of the two timelines & the gradual reveals, but for me, I'm afraid the characters rather spoiled things. Dolly Dove seemed to have almost no personality & I had no strong feelings about what happened to her character, Fern was just annoying, & did Nell have to be quite so useless at everything? I also found the ending to be rather melodramatic. (continued)

so good and yet heartbreaking at the same time. It deals with some pretty tough themes and as a parent of a girl the right age it was hard hitting. I like how we saw it through three completely different experiences. It added so much more depth to the story. The plot is simple in many ways yet it takes you on a journey. It has a modern feel running through it with occasional excerpts from online posts, police reports. #Netgalley 5*
“If the man with the skull cup offers you a drink, accept it or you will die a gruesome death; don‘t buy ice from the children with no wagon; and of course, never ever follow the lights.“
Oh, this started off so well....but soon degenerated into a bit of a dog's dinner. The first chapter details the rules for staying at the campground & it really sets the scene & is very intriguing. (continued)
Hekate was the child of Titans, abandoned to the Underworld when her parents lose the war against the Olympians. Her growth into her powers as a Goddess will shape the future of Olympus, the Underworld, & all of Earth.
The goddess of crossroads & magic shows us a powerful story of making one‘s place in the world. Through a fusion of poetry & prose we get to see Hekate take control of her destiny in the face of the world telling her no.🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑
This was not good. The world is barely an outline of an idea, there is zero character development, huge chunks of the story are flat-out skipped, and there's a couple of pages of completely out of nowhere 100% gratuitous nudity. I will not be reading the second volume.

I always enjoy how these collections of science fiction and fantasy short stories introduce me to new authors. There were three standouts for me: We Will Teach You How to Read | We Will Teach You How to Read by Caroline M. Yoachim, Country Birds by Kiji Johnson, and The Weight of Your Own Ashes by Carlie St. George. I had also previously read and enjoyed The Audit by Olivie Blake.

This was a quick and inspirational read about how to engage with and create your own public art in the world. The ideas range from what is more commonly thought of as public art, as well as ideas that are smaller and more approachable to someone who is new to the idea of putting their art out into the world.
