emotional sad

3.75

3.75 🥹Some of the stories sucker punched my heart and had me bawling then staring into nothingness. They include:
1. The very first story in the book.
2. The one about white sneakers and police brutality.
3. The womanizer DJ
4. The couple in the last story who came to hospital for treatment...
Hon. Mention - The one about John
You'll forgive me because I don't remember the titles of the stories, but hopefully if you've read this book, you know what I mean.
