This was a very sad and true tale about the disappearances of women in the North Eastern coast of America. If you know me, you will know I love true crime stories. I don't know why, I just find them so interesting and compelling. That being said, this one was incredibly sad. These women who were abducted, killed, and buried without any feeling for their lives or their families lives is heinous and callous. The fact that these women's killer still has yet to be found is just as horrifying. I am definitely planning on looking into these murders more, not really to see if I can help, because I don't think I can. But I would like to see if there is more information that can be gathered on it.

To the friends and families involved, I hope you are able to find peace in knowing your childrens' stories are getting out into the world. Thank you for sharing their stories.

Very entertaining!
I was very entertained watching the serie version of The Witcher. [Context: I have played the games and I haven't read the books.] I enjoyed discovering the "real" story, the first stories, that created the games later on. I really enjoyed the format because it was, to my opinion, an echo to the short stories format, while having a bigger plot line, and without falling into filler episodes. The choice they made in mixing the time lines was interesting and I personally liked it. However I can't imagine how someone who didn't have any knowledge of the universe understood anything as lots of the details and mechanics of the society and kind of people was barely explained; as someone who "knows how it works" I enjoyed not having too much exposition. I recommend!

Brothers in Arms Anthology has a military streak running through it, to no ones' surprise! Most of them are in a contemporary setting, but one has a distinctive Science Fiction feel to it. They aren't just M/M either, there are Ménage Moments too.

All of the stories are very well written, considering the scope of a short story. I would love to see some of them expanded into full-length stories! Some of these authors were already known to me, but some were new and I will definitely be reading more.

I enjoyed all the stories, but if I had to pick a favourite, it would be either One Night With You or Would You Wait For Me? Definitely recommended by me.
