Collision: Stories | J. S. Breukelaar
Mehso-so

I read this because I was looking into taking a class with the author about weird fiction. I have decided not to take the class because I wasn't impressed with her take on weird fiction. I saw people compare her work to Poe and Lovecraft, and while I see their influence, she hardly compares. Some of the stories were good. Most, however, just left me wondering what the point was.
