So this collection comes with a blanket trigger warning: hard times are ahead like a lot of teens living without spare hearts and too many broken parts. Stories include "I Hate John Green" and the Tear Collector story "A Shoulder to Cry On."

Lansdowne relentlessly tracks the creature, inadvertently becoming engaged in a life-or-death battle. Victorious but wounded, Lansdowne ends up in the hospital - while outside, evidence implies that the animal Lansdowne killed was not the only one of its kind.
