Seems like a life and death theme through most of the stories here. Elsa's Sphere's by Marina J. Lostetter was enjoyable. A grieving widow trying to move on after his wife passes. But the best story here had to be Seven Tips to Enjoy Your Time in the Unreal Forest by Van Aaron Hughes. A kid struggling to fit in amongst bullies, girls, and an abusive father discovers a secret. In the end he discovers loss and wishes to share a message with everyone. A sad story with an important message. ( )
