I wouldn't have picked this up if it hadn't come as part of a Humble Bundle. I loved the ideas in some stories (putting yourself into a book? Brilliant.), and skipped quickly though others (vampires, mainly). Glad I read it.
2.5 stars. The stories were nothing to write home about. Nothing memorable. If you like young adult urban fantasy short stories, then you might like this.
I've been a fan of Black's for years because of her Ironside books so I really enjoyed these short stories. Of course, my favourite was the one most like Ironside with its fae in modern, urban setting. This was an enjoyable read with lots of seemingly unique story ideas compiled from various previously published anthologies.
