I really loved how poetic the book feels. Very clear the author is a poet. The book has a rhythm that pulls you in. Lots of lines I related to. A few parts that I can only try to relate to. I enjoyed this easy read.

i liked these stories a lot, especially phyllis green and women talking. they flowed in a way that made it easy to get sucked in and read for ages.
