First story is a 3.5/5 
Second story is a 4/5 
It was short, quick and it said what it had to say.
The language in the first story is vile. And ends weird
Lots of colloquial language and I did not have any trouble imagining/believing this to be someone’s actual story.
Another Japanese story with women cheating, but at least here the men do to; a more honest recount of how it might happen.

4.0

Short, two story book, with slight anti-climatic endings. I believe the author intended to leave the endings as such in order to allow readers for interpretation. However, the author amazingly folded the plot lines towards the end of each story

cute but I know for sure that I'm going to forget those stories. Here's my ranking tho

Qu'est devenu l'homme coincé dans l'ascenseur ? ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆
Vampires ⭐⭐☆☆☆
L'amour à haute tension ⭐⭐⭐☆☆ (wtf was that tho, like they included a full on smut story in the middle on nowhere)
L'homme qui n'avait pas d'ombre ⭐⭐☆☆☆
