first story is an absolute 5-star, the concept is so unique and creative and the execution is perfect. i love stories about memory loss - it is so scary. 

"murder is less like poetry and more like prose."

unfortunately, it did go downhill from there - a 4 star, a 3 star and a 2 star - in that exact order. the last story is just so strange...

The title story and “The Writer” are my favorite two out of the four stories!
