I had not read San Diego 2014. I rushed to read it as soon as I bought the book.

I do NOT have tears in my eyes. It's just dust,

Also?

If Seanan was a zombie, I'm SURE she would be the type to rip your heart out, look you in the eye THEN eat it.

Anyway... I'm on the Australia story, which is surprisingly funny actually....

The Day the Dead Came to Show and Tell will break your heart, then Please Do Not Taunt the Octopus will tear it out.

I read that one once and I just...I don't think I can ever read that one again.

Seanan does her job very well.

(San Diego 2014 is still my favorite.)

At 11:30, I gave up on pretending I wasn't reading All the Pretty Little Horses and went to lunch.

Thank you.

Fortunately I read fast, so I finished both All the Pretty Little Horses and Coming To You Live during a (longish) lunch. Thank you.

Both surgery and organ transplants in the Newsflesh universe are so much more dangerous than they used to be. The early stages of kidney failure was very like my dad's, which is probably a good sign accuracy-wise.

Will All the Pretty Little Horses and Coming to You Live be available as stand-alone e-books? I've already bought the others, and I can't at the moment justify paying for them again. (Got to get Toby's next book for a start, and then there's Feedback later this year.

Probably not, as they were written for inclusion in the larger collection, but honestly, that's more of a question for Orbit than for me. I'm sorry.

Oh man. I know the Masons are kind of horrible people, but like...they're the product of their attempt to live with an unimaginably hard situation and it's hard not to sympathize. I'm a mom; I can't imagine I'd do any better if I were in Stacy's position. Very well done.

And I loved Coming to you Live. That ending was so right. <3 everybody.

Congratulations on this collection, and thank you. :)
