I feel bad almost for the rating because the concept is great, love the accuracy of trauma as a discussion not a shock value, and where it was going. HOWEVER, the 60% mark is really where it started to lose me I think. By the end, I just wanted it to conclude... cool and magical realism, but felt like it dragged ironically for a short story
