“… the sheer amount of talent and cohesive quality of all of the pieces dictate my grading of the book, and it’s wrapped up in more Gemma Amor cover quality goodness, this is going to get a 5 out of 5 ⭐ ‘s …” – Austrian Spencer

“… Laurel Hightower and Sandra Ruttan have edited a fever dream of identity horror that is wonderfully put together, the implementation of flash fiction and poetry help to give breathing spaces between the longer stories – there is so much brilliance here that it shows what a wonderful time it is for horror …” – Ross Jeffery

“All the authors really brought their A+ game and Laurel Hightower and Sandra Ruttan have put together this masterpiece. I cannot even imagine how difficult this must have been – but the result is pure fire!.” – Alex: findingmontauk1
