 Overall, this story was interesting. I don't know that I understood half of it, but I enjoyed learning about the characters, their lives, and figuring out how all of them connected with each other.

I've decided I have trouble with short stories that are interconnected. Which is what this basically is. I tend to feel a bit disjointed from the stories. That being said, I really enjoyed the writing in this one.
