“Stale Air” by Jo Quenell - a young man visits his absent father to work out some resentments, and discovers something both horrifying and miraculous. Excellent dialogue and tension-building, plus a creepy twist and some gross out horror!

“I Know Not the Names of the Gods to Whom I Pray” by @sammytotep - a man struggling to deal with grief and heartache over the loss of a loved one. It’s graphically violent, poetic, and achingly beautiful.

“Apate’s Children” by @brendanvidito - a man must deal over and over with shame of infidelity, his guilt manifesting in a series of increasingly bizarre and brutal horrors. To say more would be too much, but it’s genuinely weird and frightening. Possibly my favorite of the collection.

“Start Today” by @loseyourghost - a man who struggles with self-esteem joins a support group for guys who want to become better versions of themselves. This one holds its cards close in the first half, then turns to grimace-inducing body horror in the second half. Loved it.

All four of these stories are 5 ⭐️ reads, making this a collection that’s easy to recommend. It’s a tiny-but-powerful book. Loved the variety of ideas and writing styles, and these stories are ripe for further readings.
