I loved Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke, and I was hoping of something of a similar experience here.
I found a couple of gems, I’ll Be Gone By Then, The Trees Grew Because I Bled There, Bodies Are For Burning are probably the standout stories.
You’re Not Supposed to Be Here is okay, but not great.
I was hoping for something more dark, and disturbing. I liked his portrayal of grief but that’s about it.
Maybe give this one a skip.
