There is something about reading a audio book that makes everything more immersive. I have never heard of this series. I went to a book festival and wore the shirt and was asked about what it was. The older black women recognized l Ron Hubbard name. Because this volume have only one black authors story im really hope over the past four decades the series has been more diverse than this year. The crowd is also older and I wonder beyond writing spaces in the traditional sense if other generations know about this. I wasn't sure how I would feel about the stories. I didn't love bipoc characters being read but white voices. I like more effort to be put in who correctly represents identities & cultures. Most if not all of the stories were incredible and unique. Reading the physical book would have been longer. It was like reading black mirror or dystopia. I particularly like the stories about revenge or humans making very human choices. Not every story is a happy ending. Most have cliffhangers. I can see myself reading this again or recommending it to others. Hopefully more people hear about this and submit a story.
