Mesmerizing. RTC after we read it for class later this sem. 😜
I went into this blind and listening on audiobook.
I think that was a good approach. The first story was the most affecting. It was sad and beautiful and real. I think that was the best of the stories. The rest of the stories touch on issues and experiences very, very familiar to me. It’s nice to hear them reflected back to me as art.
The audiobook reader was a poor choice. She does not know how to pronounce common words. It’s embarrassing. Locks-mee. Hi-DARE-ah-bad. Lol.
