brilokuloj's review against another edition

I really did like it but the depictions of misogyny were just too triggering for where I am in my life right now. That's not the book's fault and I'd like to come back to it when I'm feeling better.

laurel616's review against another edition

I read through the first two stories, and I definitely think that if you can handle the body horror this will probably be a great read.  However - I cannot so I am putting this one down.

You gotta like and be open to a lot of genres to truly enjoy this book, magic realism, fantasy, fables. You have to be okay to not have all the answers cause if you don't, you'll end up like me disappointed. Wanting more or feeling like there was space for a few more pages to give a more concise closure.

I liked some stories more than others.. some were really slow and tough to get through, which could be due to the translation. Most, if not all, had a message behind the story and were very thought provoking. Some of the stories definitely felt like there were some loose ends that could've been tied up better, but I guess that adds to the mystery of it. Overall, a pretty decent book and I can see myself reading it again, maybe just skipping over my least favorite stories.
