This was not what I needed right now. This felt more like a book of connected short stories versus a novel, which is something I generally enjoy, but these all tended to end on sorrowful or wistful notes and I just need happier stories right now. The writing was captivating, though. I'll definitely pick up further work from Phillips, presuming we're no longer under stay at home orders in a pandemic.
