Learning to Hate Yourself as a Self-Defense Mechanism

The cover immediately caught my attention and that title was so good I just knew I had to read this book as soon as possible.

I am pleased to report that it was pretty much as fantastic as I hoped it would be and I will certainly be on the lookout for more by Kriz. The stories blended science fiction, fantasy, and horror elements seamlessly and honestly my only gripe with this one is that I wish it was longer because I'm greedy.

AIs Who Make Ais Make the Best Ais! was a favorite for its use of repetition which I thought was masterfully done and I Want to Dream of a Brief Future was also a favorite because it gave me Recursion vibes but with a fantasy flavor which I found most delightful.

Many thanks to Interstellar Flight Press and NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to read and review this title.
