Jason Dean The Off-Season:An anthology of Coastal New Weird3.25 / 5I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.Ok, so…For me, this was a mixed bag, in terms of the enjoyment I got out of the stories.Many of the tales were just a tad too weird for me to wrap my lil brain around. Some felt more like concepts than actualized stories. But there are certainly plenty of winners within.My personal favorite was We Are Not Yet Healed.I can be rather fussy when it comes to anthologies, so take my critiques with a grain of salt. But I'd say I really liked about half the stories, and didn't love the others.If weird fiction is your jam, I'd recommend checking this one out. There's bound to be something within to please most everyone.3.25 / 5

Raistlin I read Off-Season while visiting Carlsbad and man was it a weird and chilling trip! This is a perfect anthology for the fall or winter read. Check it out and you won’t be disappointed. The prose is crisp, clean, and cuts to the bone at times. It wish it had even more stories! Marissa did a great job collecting these 25 coastal new weird tales. They will twist your brain into a strong sailor’s knot.
