This is an absolutely wonderful, dark short story collection that focuses around body horror and women's physical and emotional experiences and taking it into a fantasy realm while she's at it. Haunting, and definitely worth your time.

lorriemore's review
good, weird short stories! like a lorrie moore collection where all the women have climate anxiety. very distinct as a collection but maybe lacking in distinction between the stories themselves at points. also fucked up to allude to characters called bradford and shipley

What a cool collection of stories. A bit too black mirror-esque for me, but beautifully written and relatable for speculative fiction
