2013 Stories 107 - 142
I received an ARC of WHERE THY DARK EYE GLANCES: Queering Edgar Allan Poe, edited by Steve Berman. I'm writing a full review of the book for Strange Horizons, so I think it would probably be unprofessional to do individual story reviews here before they publish the full review. I may come back and edit in individual thoughts later. For now, I'll list the stories and authors and star the stories I liked the most.

There really isn't a completely weak story in the book, but the starred ones represent the stories that still had me thinking days after reading them.
EDITED 5/23/13 because I realized I mis-numbered the last 6 entries.
