If you're looking for stories that challenge the norm, this is one of the books to read. The collection of stories are dark, wild and triggering. They aren't for the faint-hearted and easily-queasy readers, and will provoke odd thoughts or question certain ideals that society has ingrained in us. But they aren't entirely illogical either; there are definite elements of a possible dystopian future but still includes some heart-warming moments. I enjoyed every story; "Life Ceremony" and "Puzzle" were personally the wildest for me.
Graphic: Sexism, Body horror, Vomit, Ableism, and Mental illness
