"I've only read one other collection of short stories and that was back in February. I gave that collection 3 stars and was really disappointed because only like a literal few of those stories were 5 stars. This time I went through and rated each story then averaged them. If you want to be super specific, it's a 4.8. <br/><br/>All I knew getting into this was that the stories would have something to do with science fiction or fantasy, I had no idea the amount of wonderfully written representation there would be. I would love to find more anthologies similar to this, and the 3 star on - Because You Love to Hate Me. I'm really quite surprised as I was told that its usually hard to rate an anthology 5 stars due to the ranges in stories. Well either I just needed hope in my life right now and found more 5 stars than I normally would, or this was just truly that good. I opt for the latter. <br/><br/>My favorite favorites:<br/><br/>Reign of Diamonds by Anna-Marie McLemore<br/>Rogue Enchantments by Isabela Ibanez<br/>Sumaiko y La Sirena by Vita Ayala<br/>Killing El Chivo by Claribel A. Ortega<br/>Tame the Wicked Night by Zoraida Cordova"
