Caitlin's Reviews > Mouth: Stories

From a teen figure skater falling in love with a girl she’s convinced is a vampire to a world where “anomalies” open up and suck people in - this was such an amazing short story collection. The writing was beautiful, lyrical and I highlighted so many quotes. Each story was unique but there were common themes of love, grief and of course mouths. I loved how each story was set in a world similar yet different to our own: world where wolves are taking over, men are taken away at 18 and different planets all together. It was surreal, weird and sometimes sad and I absolutely loved reading it.
