"Januaries" is a collection of short stories written by Olivie Blake.

I loved this collection so much! Some titles won me over, others left me lukewarm, and others still didn't convince me, but overall I was very pleased! The collection expresses the author's great imagination, alternating between modified classic fairy tales, thrilling contemporary heists, multiverse adventures, a careful and intense analysis of what it means to be human, and much more. I love the author's spellbinding, evocative, and lyrical writing, and I am very happy to have found it again between the pages! Also, I continue to be amazed by her ability to skillfully mix different genres and themes, creating fantastic results!

My favorite stories were:
- The Wish Bridge
- The House
- Fates and Consequences
- A Year in January

Thank you to the Publisher and NetGalley for giving me an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
