- lord yuuriRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0At the time of writing this, Stories From the Holler has just three chapters, but they are three chapters that are very fantastic. Each chapter is self-contained, featuring characters that may or may not necessarily be likeable, but they're complex and well-written. You become enthralled with each tale, seeing how lives can differ vastly even in small, far-off areas. There's only so much someone can do within in a short story, but I feel like everything worked: the choice of plots, the way characters interact, and just how description of the environment and how everyone interacts with said environment.
I also feel like each chapter flows well. There's no sense of anything being rushed or too fast-paced; nor is it really slow to the point where it could feel stagnant. Everything has a purpose and everything keeps moving at a nice, steady pace.
To put it plainly: this is a really super cool collection of short stories and I absolutely recommend reading ye.
