I felt like a lot of the stories were left unfinished. i would’ve liked to see more character development. I went in expecting something similar in depth to Secret Lives and Church Ladies and it did not compare. 

All that to say, it’s not a bad collection in the slightest. I did genuinely enjoy every story I read. I just wanted more

Almost all of these were meh (excellent technique, just didn’t have a zing to ‘em) except for Bump, which had the zing!

One of my favorite short story collections of the past year. Queer, rich, deeply intimate stories with an undertone of strangeness that makes the stories feel a little dreamy. The vibes are like a queerer, Southern Kelly Link.
