we have Pretty Monsters at the library. it does look interesting, have you read it yet?

[Roxy]

The first story was good, but after that...

[Jane]

Pretty Monsters was one of our Unofficial picks a few years ago... I liked it enough (considering I'm not usually a fan of short stories). Good if you like weird stories or poetry. Not good if you always want closure.

[Jen]

Can I suggest Going Bovine by Libba Bray?

Ah, I may skip it. Roxy was telling me about it yesterday and I've never been a fan of ambiguous endings.

@Katie it's less fantasy than it is lit. If you can read Tinkers you can read Pretty Monsters: Stories.

[Katie]

I have not read Tinkers.
I'm not a big fan of Fantasy, or at least I'm really picky. Too much fantasy is hard for me to get into if it's anything other than standard vampires, werewolves, ghosts, etc.

Wow, this list is old.
