These stories
varied in content and interest level- a great quality for a collection of short
stories. Because it is difficult to rate as a whole, I will review my favorite
and least favorite stories. My favorite was Kissing
Dead Boys by Annette Curtis Klause (author of Blood and Chocolate) who writes an incredible story on revenge for
her sister’s death. In the author’s note, Klause explains how the plot of the story
came about. My least favorite was No
Visible Power by Deborah Noyes (the editor). The story had a good promising
premise, but quickly became disjointed and difficult to follow. It was as
though it was originally a longer story and sections were cut so it could be included
in this collection of short stories.
