The Black Girl Survives in This One by Saraciea J. Fennell, Desiree S. Evans
mysterious
tense
medium-paced
3.5
Harvesters by L.L. McKinney: not much to say about this one except that I liked the twists!
Welcome Back to the Cosmos by Kortney Nash: really enjoyed the scifi elements and how they worked with the unsettling atmosphere.
Ghost Light by Erin E. Adams: theater lore! Something should have happened to Sarah.
The Brides of Devil's Bayou by Desiree S. Evans: I loved this! Great family curse and build up as it was resolved.
TMI by Zakiya Dalila Harris: short and intriguing.
Black Pride by Justina Ireland: you know what? I wouldn't mind if this was true. Great take on monsters!
The Screamers by Daka Hermon: a solid ghost and haunted house story!
Queeniums for Greenium! by Brittney Morris: the scariest story yet tbh. MLMs are a horror.
Inheritance by Camara Aaron: great way to tie folktales with family history.
Black Girl Nature Group by Maika Moulite, Maritza Moulite: another favorite! We should never go into the woods with white people.
Cemetery Dance Party by Saraciea J. Fennell: this would make such a good movie tbh.
The Skittering Thing by Monica Brashears: a bit too weird and convoluted for me.
The Black Strings by Vincent Tirado: so much tension! I loved the take on the strings and how that unfolded.
Local Color by Eden Royce: started a little shaky, but the ending was great!
Foxhunt by Charlotte Nicole Davis: fantastic way to wrap up the collection! The Hunt concept isn't a new one, but I liked how it worked with Felix's mental health.
Overall, a fun read throughout. I did expect a bit more spookiness from the stories, however, instead of mostly action.
