I absolutely LOVED - really, really loved - Open Wounds! Wow... this is the first fiction by S.C. Farrow that I have read, and I am left wanting so much more. Every story in Open Wounds stirred up strong emotions in me and left me itching with questions. ~Niki Langman@Goodreads

What struck me the most about this collection is the authenticity of the narratives. Farrow doesn't shy away from exploring the darker aspects of life. Instead, she dives headfirst into the complexities of human emotions, relationships, and the consequences of our choices. ~Books Review@Goodreads

This collection of Australian short stories is a must tbr. I feel like it's unlike any other book I've read before. I'm glad I read it, because the language and style created an emotional response while reading this book's content. Love the author's voice and love the work. ~Teri Palmer@Goodreads
