I found the stories to be experimental and speculative in nature which I enjoy as a genre, however didn't really like the segment concept, or the showman type introductions. The last segment was particularly weak and just seemed off and confusing. I think that the author does have a unique voice though and would be open to reading more in the future. I think there is untapped creativity that the author possesses, but it fell a bit flat in this book of stories. Thanks for the ARC, NetGalley.

This is an interesting group of stories. They are all fairly short, so they read easily and quickly. After reading them, I really do not know what to say abut them. I did not relate to any of them. I read them, as I said I would, but I just did not find any very interesting or to my liking. At least, they were all short, so took little time to get through. Perhaps someone else will find them more interesting than I did. I think the author had some good ideas when he set out to write the stories. I am just not sure what his point was. I received this from NetGalley to read and review.

These are very well written short stories, most of them very interesting, but they are in many different genres and I don't like them all. Therefore, I would prefer a label on each of them with a little description.

Thirty Rich, for a short story wasn't bad, I just am obsessed with short stories, and while this book was definitely better than most short stories, it still missed the mark for me and even though the stories were interesting in some ways, they were A little too short for me and fell A little flat.

Still bravo, better than A lot of short story books out there. Sadly, just didn't resonate with me or leave me remembering the stories long afterwards, as promised.

A special thanks to BooksGoSocial, NetGalley, and author Wen Henagan for this ARC copy.
