laurel616's review against another edition

I read through the first two stories, and I definitely think that if you can handle the body horror this will probably be a great read.  However - I cannot so I am putting this one down.

I can tell part of this book has a bit of a cultural wall I can't break through. Some stories shined regardless of that but others felt like a story told to me in passing.

You gotta like and be open to a lot of genres to truly enjoy this book, magic realism, fantasy, fables. You have to be okay to not have all the answers cause if you don't, you'll end up like me disappointed. Wanting more or feeling like there was space for a few more pages to give a more concise closure.
