Critiques
Mixed Assortment

This collection is a mixed bag. Some stories, like "The New Mother" and "Wooden Tony" are really haunting. Others are rather bland or repetitive. But I did really like how the stories looped around on themselves, with characters and events from one story being referenced in others.
