Cousin Nancy by Alberta Sinclair 29/3 3.5★

I seem to be tuned into Max Porter's unusual storytelling. Grief is the Thing with Feathers could be a tear-jerker, but isn't. Crow is a raucous, wacky crow-on-the-wall (and often in-the-face) companion to Dad and the two young sons. Outstanding.
My review of Grief is The Thing With Feathers
A controversial ending!
The Father She Went to Find by Carter Wilson ⭐⭐⭐.5 https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
The second short story in the Never Tell collection, The Ghost Writer by Loreth Anne White is a gothic tale with a clever twist and possibly an unreliable narrator. 4★shttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Gods of Jade and Shadow by Silvia Moreno-Garcia is based on Mayan legends and features a strong female lead, a quest and a romance. ⭐⭐ here is my review
