The sixth title of Chapbook Week is Shiny Insect Sex by Stephanie Lane Sutton.

The vivid stories in this collection are a blend of science and gender, and I loved how each story pulled me into a new world and taught me something about what’s around me. One of my favorite stories is “Survival Town, USA,” but I can never resist “The Shy Male Seahorse Aborts For Me,” with its stunning opening line:

“When our eyes meet, the space between us fills with his brood.”
