Each story imagines a way for us to survive the future, together.

My thoughts about Bright Green Futures ~~
I've loved everything I've read by Susan Kay Quinn. I'm always very interested to see what project she's got going on, what words she's writing. She is the editor of Bright Green Futures, a wonderful anthology of stories that will make readers think about the future of our world.
As with any anthology of short stories, some of the stories will speak to me, the reader, and some will leave me scratching my head. But that's the beauty of it all, isn't it? That one story that takes me out of my comfort zone and makes me think. I truly believe this is the goal of any project that Susan is a part of.
This was a quick read but also an inspiring way to spend my time. I thoroughly enjoyed each story and highly recommend it to all who have a concern about the future.
I received an ARC of Bright Green Futures and this is my honest opinion of the book.
