I found the writing lovely even if it's a very dark read...
I was waiting for one small story about a yellow wallpaper, I was surprised to found 3 smaller stories about different things...
i'm sure there is much more to say about it, I don't think I quite yet understood everything but I sure want to go back and underline many great lines, and try make assomptions about what I think every ending meant and what they tell us..... ~
I would recommend
Graphic: Schizophrenia/Psychosis , Death, Sexual harassment, Blood, Dementia, Mental illness, and Confinement

For the case of this book, I though it was good. For how short it was it definitely built up the atmosphere and vibes quite well and the tension of what would come next was evident. However, I couldn't separate out the reality that women are constantly reassured that everything is fine, and even if something is wrong it can't be that bad. It made me so sad and frustrated.
