BUT, and that has rather to do with my personal reading tastes at the moment, than with the stories and their contents ...
I AM soo over that kind of "vulgar sexual content"... I don't know... I just couldn't care less about it... That definitely influenced my reading experience..
Additionally, due to the blurb on the back, I expected the short stories to be weirder, and dip more into SF and horror (it is horror - but rather everyday horror of the female experience in society)...
I guess, I am not the right audience for these kind of literary short stories 🤷♀️
