Into The Forest-An Anthology of Baba Yaga Stories

I originally picked this up to read during short story September but never got around to reading it, so I saved it for October for a spooky read. 

Prior to reading this I did not have much knowledge of Baba Yaga other than hearing the name a time or two. So, I kind of went into this blind to the stories about said entity. That being said, out of the stories within this book, there were two that I really enjoyed. "Of Moonlight and Moss" by Sara Tantlinger ; "Mama Yaga" by Christina SNG; "Flood Zone" by Donna Lynch; "Sugar and Spice and the Old Witch's Price" by Lisa Quigley; "Birds of a Feather" by Monique Snyman; "Fair Trade" by Jacqueline West and "Where the Horizon Meets the Sky" by R.J. Joseph were the ones that really stood out to me. 

Just from the 23 stories in this anthology, I can tell that Baba Yaga can take on all forms. She can be ancient, traditional, modern, all ethnicities, can be young, old, pretty and ugly. She is everything and nothing all at once. While all the stories are written well, there were just some that stood out to me more than others. I really enjoy a good collection of stories as it gives you a chance to get a feel for several different authors, yet in the same place. I received this book free from NetGalley for an honest review.
