Gripping short stories of different lengths, set mainly around Yorkshire with some only a couple of pages long. Motherhood of babies and toddlers is a key theme along with the animals encountered. Dark and beautiful stories - ‘Love Birds’ and ‘Cluster’ are my favourite.

Started off strong but went meh in the middle and just okay at the end. I preferred Dead Relatives more!
