You know a writer is a good writer when they make you cry in public about an existential elevator

Jag trodde att den här skulle passa mig ännu bättre än Cursed Bunny - generellt sett föredrar jag sci-fi och berättelser om högteknologiska framtider framför fantasy. Anledningen att jag inte tyckte den här var lika bra som Cursed Bunny är för att den handlar om för många personer. I novellformatet verkar jag tycka bättre om konstig magisk realism som känns som mörka sagor med få perspektiv mer än dessa som i breda drag beskriver potentiella framtider på ett lite plattare sätt. Den kanske bästa novellen i boken tycker jag är den om en hiss som blir kär i en person i byggnaden - kanske för att den är mer ensidig i perspektivet, mer ingående kring en berättare och därför påminde mig mer om novellerna i Cursed Bunny. Den här samlingen är fortfarande bra, bara inte lika bra
