I finally read all the books from a book haul! April Book Haul Revisit

[@josmith5992]

I could see the excitement in your face having finished a whole book haul! 😉 The only one I have read is No Edges which I read a few months ago. The marketing in that book doesn’t do it any favors. It implies it’s speculative fiction- which it really isn’t and that’s fine with me because I prefer more fable/parable type stores. But, it also implies these are all short stories when half of them are extracts from longer works that, without context, just don’t work as short stories. So a disappointment although I hope we see more translated from this language. Here’s hoping the next book haul is as successful! 🤞

Yes! I do think they need to be more specific in the blurbs for those books because it’s hard to get a sense of what’s inside. I’m glad the latest collection was horror so you at least have a genre to go by.
