I really liked stories 1&3, the other two were more of a struggle. "The Last Rainbow" was excellent. Totally horrific, while also offering hope and a little beauty even in the worst situation imaginable. "Snowed" was also a good read. Plan ahead, and check the weather report are some of the many lessons to be learned. Both of these stories also have good endings.The other two stories, I'm not really sure what they were about. I think one was about someone making dinner, and the other one may have been something to do with repressed memories.Stories 1&3 (5 stars) stories 2&4 (2 stars) hence 3 stars was what I decided on for the collection as a whole. The stories are -Snowed - two (not so close) friends find that supply is a major issue during a weekend in a remote mountain cabin.Hush Now, Jeremy Boggs - a man faces up to his repressed memories (I think).The Last Rainbow - two captives look for a glimmer of hope, where there should be none.Violent Delights - a woman's plans for a romantic dinner are put on hold when unexpected guests arrive.I likes the way the stories were written, and you can't argue with the variety. Two up, two down.
