I found them fun and very different from oth. There is some development and across the stories there're little tidbits being dropped about Colin, Josh, Josh's boss and the nature of the hellmouth/convenience store that is the basis of Josh's strange adventures. ![]() Light and humorous, and very, very weird.These shorts are all very B movie in style (check out the cover), and they are designed to be bizarre, I think.There are three short stories in this collection, and the collection is also third in the series (a little confusing, right?), but the whole set only takes about an hour to power through.As others have noted, the romance progression is a little weak, and the stories have a campy, episodic 'unfinished' veneer.
